This week I travelled to Napranum and Weipa with Olivia from The Indigenous Marathon Foundation for a pre event visit and a series of meetings with community members and key stakeholders as we build toward the 2026 IMF Running and Walking Championships in Napranum, Cape York QLD.
It was a really grounding few days connecting with community and I am genuinely overwhelmed by the support and excitement for what is ahead. The energy for this event is already so strong and it's clear how much pride there is locally.
In July, we are looking forward to welcoming around 80 participants from 12 communities across Australia for the this national event. It is going to be a powerful few days of connection, movement and shared experience.
We also had the bonus of catching some incredible sunsets and moon rises over Napranum and Weipa that were just stunning.
Feeling grateful and excited for what is coming next.
