His upcoming event, the 30-Hour Enduro Walk, promises to be a powerful step towards a brighter future. Join us as we explore this extraordinary event, its purpose, and how you can get involved.

Chris Barton’s Unforgettable Journey:

Chris Barton’s journey began with a simple yet profound idea – to push his physical and mental limits while making a meaningful difference. His adventures started as extreme personal walk challenges, but they soon evolved into a passionate mission to drive positive change in society. Through his experiences, he discovered the transformative power of resilience, connections, and mental strength.

The 30-Hour Enduro Walk:

On April 6th and 7th, 2024, Chris Barton will embark on a remarkable journey – a 30-hour non-stop walk covering an astounding 200 kilometers. This event is not just a physical feat but a symbol of hope and resilience for young Australians facing mental health challenges. The purpose is clear: to raise awareness and funds that will directly support the efforts to build resilience and address the mental health crisis among our youth.

Partnering with BREED Australia:

Chris Barton has chosen to partner with BREED Australia, a Western Sydney charity dedicated to making a difference in the lives of young people. All funds raised through the 30-Hour Enduro Walk will go directly into BREED Australia’s School and Community Learning Programs, focusing on Emotional Intelligence, Resilience, and Goal Achievement. These programs work closely with schools and community groups in Western Sydney, providing much-needed support.

How You Can Make a Difference:

There are several ways you can participate and support this noble cause:

  1. Join the 30-Hour Challenge: If you’re up for the challenge, you can join Chris for the entire 30-hour walk. By doing so, you’ll not only conquer the distance but also raise critical funds for BREED Australia’s programs. Participants will receive official gear, food, and support along the way. Join Here
  2. Join at Anytime and for Any Distance: If the full 30-hour walk isn’t feasible for you, don’t worry. You can choose a distance that suits you, walk at your own pace, and make a difference with a $10 entry fee. Every stride counts, and your contribution will be greatly appreciated. You can simply turn up at the track and start and finish at the venue at your convenience. The entry fee can be paid here or at the venue on the day.
