Three years ago, when Jane and Shooter from The Jetty suggested we link up with Rise Above for the Santa Run, it was a no brainer. Not only does this community show up and show out for their cause, but their mission is intrinsically linked with ours.
The hardest period of my life came after my Mum’s cancer diagnosis, and the reality is that mental health sits atop countless struggles, including cancer. It’s another reality that supporting others is a pillar of good mental health.
And that’s why we’re proud to support Rise Above at this year’s Santa Run… it’s why we’re stoked that Anytime Fitness Deakin & Erindale are getting behind the cause as the Major Sponsor… and it’s why we’re excited for you to support Rise Above too!
Learn more about Rise Above and the stories behind the charity by listening to Episode 16 on Spotify or watching it above.

How you can support the cause even more…
Limited Edition R4R Santa Run shirts are available for purchase at $56, to represent the 56 Canberran’s diagnosed with cancer each week. There’s also an opportunity to grab your family photo with Santa, donating whatever you can afford in exchange.
