2026 March On Challenge

Wongawilli walking

Down to my last few kms. I should have them all knocked out by Monday night. Thank God the cooler weather is here, though my walking partner is not too fond of rugging up and can't wait to get her jacket off. I have been walking without headphones to allow myself time to reflect on the guys I served with, and wonder how many are doing it tough mentally once they got out. I have been out of the Army 31 years, but still think of it as the best time of my life. Thanks again to everyone who donated. You have gone above what I was hoping to raise.

Halfway

Halfway through the month and 53km down. I had the grandkids with me on the last two walks. They make it look easy on their scooter's.

Nearly two weeks down

Almost two weeks in and most days have been hot and humid. My wife joined us on walk and it was the longest walk yet. While walking last night my waking buddy got spooked by the tremor, which I did not feel at all.😂 Two weeks to go and I'm very impressed by some of the distance other people are doing. I will just keep on keeping on.

2nd day

Walked around our suburb, but my walking partner doesn't like the rain. so only got to do three KMs.

1st day

Nice walk today. 5.3km from the lagoon restaurant, pass the lighthouse to Win stadium and back. I had my whippet with me for support, and she will be on all the walks unless I'm using a treadmill.

Support my challenge to prevent veteran suicide and save lives

Right now in Australia, at 42%, suicide is the leading cause of death for ex-serving males aged under 30 years old.

So, this March, I am walking to support Soldier On's mental health services and programs to help prevent veteran suicide and save lives.

It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my challenge so that we can show veterans and their families that they are not alone... we stand strong with them.

Together, let's help our heroes march on.

Thanks so much for your support.

So far, I have helped provide:

40

peer support
sessions

38

employment
support

2

psychology
sessions

...to support the mental health of our brave veterans to help them march on.
