Why I'm supporting the Australian Retirement Trust Cardiac Challenge

As many of my friends and colleagues know, I have recently moved to Cairns to begin work as a paediatric cardiologist.

As part of the Australian Retirement Trust Cardiac Challenge I will be cycling the full distance from Cairns to Cooktown over 3 days. I'm doing my bit as a new member of the Far North Queensland cardiac team to raise money for vital cardiac equipment and save lives in FNQ!

Please join me on this journey – whether it be cheering me on, spreading the word or making a donation. Every little bit helps bring us closer to ensuring everyone in our region has access to the best possible cardiac care.

24/8 - Lake Morris climb

Wednesday 16th Sep
First day out on the hills. Unfortunately came across a fallen cyclist. Paramedics quick to get there and help out. Fair to say I took it quite easy on the descent.

31/8 - Palm cove deflation

Wednesday 16th Sep
Another beautiful ride, another flat. Had an unfixable flat in the tubeless tyre. Thankful for the bike shop in Palm Cove and the coffee!!

7/9 - Gillies range road

Wednesday 16th Sep
Conquered the Gillies range road up to lake Barrine. 130km with over 1000m of ascent in total. Making sure I’m ready for day 1 of the cardiac challenge ā¤ļø

14/9 - Rainbows to ruin

Wednesday 16th Sep
What started with a lovely rainbow ride ended with a flat 70k in. 10k to go and left my spare tube at home!!! Maxi cab to the rescue šŸš•
