SUPPORTING Ovarian Cancer Research

On Sunday 10 May, I'm putting my foot down to save lives.

I’m joining the Mother’s Day Classic to help raise funds and awareness to fight breast and ovarian cancers.

I am participating in the half marathon in memory of my mum, Julie, who lost her battle with Ovarian Cancer nearly 25 years ago  

Unfortunately, in 2025 the survival rate for ovarian cancer was still under 50% largely due to most woman not being diagnosed until the  later stages of the disease. 

Awareness and funding is desperately needed to support researchers to develop an early detection test and better treatment options to improve long term outcomes for these women. 

If you are in the position to donate, every little bit helps and would be much appreciated by myself and the research foundation 


Together the Mother’s Day Classic community has donated...

$48.23 million

Since 1998 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

$2.57 million

Since 2024 to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation
