I’m taking on an epic challenge this March – and I would love support.

I’m taking on a month-long fitness challenge, Kilometres for Kids, to help keep Starship’s National Air Ambulance flying to children across the country who are critically ill or injured. We never know when we, or someone we know may need this incredible service and I can't imagine it not being able to operate due to funds!

If you can, please donate to help me raise money for this incredible service, the only flying Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) in Aotearoa. It’s on call 24/7 – and a specialist flight crew can be in the air in a matter of minutes. 

Donate now to help save the lives of Kiwi kids and why not take up the challenge to support the cause with me!

My Updates

Slow & Steady wins the race

Thursday 5th Mar
You won't find many 10km+ walks over here... Mostly because I struggle to find the time for a 2hr walk by myself, and with the kids in tow even a 5km will take a long time. 

Part of this process for me is doing it WITH my kids, for the sake of other kids. 

We've been enjoying our evening walks as a family and the kids are eager to jump in the double pram and go adventuring. 

Slow & steady is about doing little & often walks to reach my goal of 150km (about 34km a week) of intentional walking, I've aimed for 3.5km minimum with some longer weekend walks so will be interesting to see how my first Sat/Sun goes this weekend! 

As a parent it's so easy to rush around all day, but I feel it's only fitting to use this challenge as an opportunity to slow down and spend the time being intentional  with my kids, because the time with with them is so precious 💕

In it together!

While it might be my name on the page, you can be sure my husband and kiddos are right there beside me as we tackle this challenge. With Family fun walks, quiet evening strolls, and even the occasional solo run The Fitzgerald's are in it together to help support Starship and all it stands for! I'm hoping to post updates every few days and would love family friendly walking track ideas! Thank you for supporting & sponsoring me, a little goes a long way when we work together Aroha nui, Haven x
