Today marks 6 months to go until STRYDE4 Day.

I'm proposing Thursday 24th October is a day we dedicate to our health, community and causes that we care about. Who's with me?

Together we will unite, collaborate, inspire and achieve.? We will raise millions of dollars for our favourite charities and make the world a happier place.

STRYDE4 Day is open to everyone. Bring your colleagues, friends and family and get ready for the most fun you’ll have on a Thursday. Yes it is a Thursday, so we are encouraging you to speak to your employer and take the day as a volunteering day, a wellbeing day an RDO or time in lieu. This will be good for you and great for your employer when you come back energised and appreciative of their support.

What can you look forward to?

STRYDE4 Day is not your average charity event.

You can:

• Cruise the scenic 10km walk from Bondi to Maroubra.
• Take on the full 21km walk from Bondi to La Perouse.
• Jump on your ski and enjoy the 14km Ocean Paddle from Clovelly to La Perouse.
• Sign up to be part of our army of awesome volunteers that bring these incredible events to life!

Along the way you’re invited to take part in our:

• Digital scavenger hunt,
• Team challenges which include swimming in each of the ocean pools,
• Ice bath immersion,
• Lawn bowl challenge,
• Obstacle course,
• Live entertainment,
• Oh and you’ll get to enjoy the Sculptures by the Sea art installations.
• If you’re paddling you better keep an eye out for the migrating whales and get ready to soak up some paddling stories with our awesome ambassadors, Bonnie Hancock, Drew Ginn OAM and Luke Horder
• We take care of everything….All you need is to bring your energy and excitement to support our fantastic charity partners.

It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3.

Rally your colleagues, family and friends for a day you won’t want to miss.
