Challenge 4 Challenge - 245km Run

By Brennan Van Eeken

Challenge 4 Challenge

This August, I’m taking on the Ultimate Challenge: running 245km over four days (28–31 August 2025) from Barmah to Melbourne – all to raise vital funds for Challenge.

It’s going to be tough, but nothing compared to what children living with cancer face every day.

Please consider donating and follow along as I take on this journey. Together, we can help Challenge deliver more smiles.

About Challenge:

Challenge is a unique organisation that has a very personal connection to children and families living with cancer. The wellbeing of the entire family is Challenge’s fundamental concern. Through their programs and services, they aim to make life easier as children deal with a life-threatening illness.

Challenge provides an extensive range of non-medical support services including playgroup, music and art therapy, massage therapy and practical information. In the community, Challenge offers camps, tickets to sporting matches and concerts, holiday accommodation, parent retreats, home help, financial support and educational scholarship opportunities. In hospital, Challenge has a daily interface on the ward which involves providing equipment, activities and support.
