You Know You've Got More Than You Anticipate! – Our City2Surf Story


The City2Surf was a personal challenge for me at Kaizen Remedial Massage Therapy. Last year's initial breakthrough of 97 minutes was about proving I could run. This year, I set a goal of 80 minutes and astonishingly finished in 79! 🎉


Nervousness in the morning with a heart rate of 100bpm standing still and sweaty palms turned into triumph, and Heartbreak Hill wasn't as daunting as expected. Arigatou to advice from athlete clients, I conquered it with confidence! 🏞️


Through your incredible support, we raised funds for those facing mental challenges in our community:

- $4040 for the 5KM Malabar Swim 🏊

- $2123 for the 10KM Bondi to Watson's Bay Swim 🏊‍♂️

- $529 for City2Surf today 🏃

Total Amount Fundraised: $6692 💰


These funds helped:

- Build swimming pools for disabled children 🏊‍♀️

- Support surf therapy for kids and adults 🏄


At Kaizen, I'm not only a massage therapist; I'm a learner, inspired by you. We embrace the philosophy of continuous improvement, one step at a time. Your belief, support, and dedication drive us to achieve more.


You are all amazing, and I'm grateful for your faith in me. 🌟


Now, it's your turn to show me what you've got!


Here's to more achievements, support, and breakthroughs. Together, we grow. 🌱
