Sarah Mycroft
Sarah Mycroft is a young woman on a mission. Her dream is to become the first woman to run around Australia and her quest began on April 4th when she ran north across the Harbour Bridge from the Sydney Opera House. Sarah has completed marathons all over the world and was NSW's Long Distance Runner of the Year for 3 consecutive years from 2001.
Sarah's two children Bonnie (4) and Austin (18 months) are travelling with her and they are joined by 3 – 4 backpackers who make up her invaluable support crew. The support convoy consists of a newly renovated Scania bus, a Toyota Hilux duel cab ute and a Holden Barina.
Sarah aims to run 30 – 35 kilometres each morning and then another 30 – 35km each evening which will see her on track to run the 15 000 kilometres in under 250 days.
During her journey, Sarah will raise awareness of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle in particular healthy eating and regular exercise. Encouraging the Australian population to shop wisely, buying whole food and preparing meals form scratch with organic foods where possible, avoiding the modern pollutants and toxins that we find on chemical sprayed fruits and vegetables and processed foods that contain synthetic ingredients. She is raising funds for the Mindd Foundation; which promotes an integrated approach to healthcare for the whole family and focuses on the paediatric disorders of Autism, ADHD, asthma, allergies, chronic illness, learning and language delay and digestive and behavioural disorders.
Sarah runs under the motto ONE LAP NO EXCUSES and is out to show that you can make your dreams come true against all the odds and sometimes unforseen adversities. Sarah visits schools on her travels and shares her passion for chemical free eating, promotes the benefits of an active lifestyle and challenges the students to go for their dreams.
