Central Queenslanders are urged to lace up their running shoes to run 100km for Life Education Queensland’s new fundraising challenge – the Healthy Harold Hundred to help stamp out bullying.
The Healthy Harold Hundred challenges people of all ages to walk, run or ride 5km a day, for 20 days, to help raise funds for Life Education Queensland’s respectful relationships in-school programs.
Life Education Queensland CEO Michael Fawsitt said the initial response to the charity’s new Healthy Harold Hundred campaign had been phenomenal with 1000 people registering so far.
“It’s fantastic that so many people have pledged their support because it’s never been more important to shine the spotlight on the issue of bullying and respect,” Mr Fawsitt said.
