My Activity Tracking

I have completed

of my 500 m sprint goal.

My target 500 m

I’m getting breathless for asthma!

I’m challenging myself to 10 days straight of fitness activity because, unlike people with asthma I can breathe easily. I want to stand with them and really experience what it’s like, even just for a moment, to struggle to breathe. 

  • Asthma is responsible for at least 1 Australian death every day and around 100 hospitalisations every day. Over 80% of these hospitalisations are considered potentially avoidable. 
  • 1 in 9 Australians are directly impacted by asthma, with children being the most impacted.

You can show your support by using the Donate button. Your support will fund ground-breaking research and provide free support programs and services to the asthma community, like 1800 ASTHMA. A telephone information support service that receives around 20 calls a day from people with asthma and their carers. 

“An Asthma Educator really changed my life. I have never in my life been more well than I am now, due to that call I made to Asthma Australia. Can’t recommend them highly enough. I learned more in that 40 minute chat than I have in my lifetime.”

Pre Huff & Puff Pondering

Monday 26th Aug
The first 10 days of September will be a stretch for me. I have set a goal of 3km daily - working up from walking to hopefully jogging some (or by some miracle most) of it. I am not a fit person, or a runner. Finding the time among Mum duties and work. I am looking forward to the challenge and seeing if I can achieve or even surpass my goal.
I have joined the huff & puff because I have mild asthma and I am mum to a preteen daughter with asthma. Access to good asthma education has helped us to learn to manage our asthma well. This is something all asthmatics and their families should have access to. Please support me as I huff & puff to help there be more research and better resources for  those impacted by asthma in Australia
