Tom set out on one of the wettest days on record to run 10km loops of Manly Dam trail and his only plan was to run forever to raise funds for critical environmental groups For Wild Places and Seabin.

 

The community rallied behind me physically and digitally and pushed me to run further than I ever have in my life. The rain and flooding was relentless and soaked into my bones, the darkness was terrifying. But what we achieved, together as a team and a group of people willing to fight for a better future for our planet was beyond my wildest imagination.

This is only the beginning. Join the conversation about how we can use movement, loving each other, and a love of nature to save the world over at my Instagram @tombatrouney.
