Skating for a Cause: Adam Morrow's Epic Journey

In an inspiring display of benevolance, Adam Morrow is gearing up to skate a remarkable distance of over 160 kilometers, from Docklands to Phillip Island, passing through Greater Dandenong. This ambitious journey, starting at 10pm on March 14 and culminating by 2pm the following day, isn't just a test of endurance but a heartfelt mission to raise funds for causes close to his heart.

Adam's passion for skating blends with a noble cause as he embarks on this overnight skating marathon. "All of the night skating will be on bike paths and around Dandenong I will be on back streets and footpaths. Nothing I haven’t done before, so I’m confident skating that sort of terrain," says Mr. Morrow, a seasoned skater with a knack for adventure.

What sets this event apart is its charitable aspect. Adam is dedicating his skate to raise funds for Love Your Sister and the Heart Lung Transplant Trust Victoria, charities that hold personal significance for him, having lost friends to cancer and witnessed the impact of a life-extending double lung transplant. His connection to these causes is deeply personal and drives his commitment to this challenging skate.

The initiative has already gathered momentum, with over $1000 raised so far, and Adam aims to raise as much as possible. His efforts are supported by various skate centers and a growing online community. Followers can track his journey and training updates on his social Facebook and Instagram pages.

Adam's determination is fueled by personal stories and the impact of charitable organisations. After meeting Sam Johnson, founder of Love Your Sister charity, who himself unicycled around Australia for fundraising, Adam knew he had found the right charity to support through his "crazy skate."

This event is more than just a physical feat; it's a testament to the human spirit's power to make a difference through passion and perseverance.
