100 miles for Angus Bowmer

By Mitchell Thurtell

Share this page

I’ve taken a stand against blood cancer.

Late last year Angus Bowmer was taken  from us way to young (31) from leukaemia. So I’ve decided with my mate, Justin Dengate, to run the kosciuszko 100 mile ultra trail to honour Angus and raise some much needed funds for the leukaemia foundation.




Today, more than 53 Australians will be told that they have blood cancer and tomorrow - another 53 families will be devastated by the same news.

I have created this page to raise vital funds to help provide the special care that is needed to get families through a blood cancer diagnosis as well as to help fund more game-changing research into this disease. 

The money I raise will help provide care for those in need right now — and it will back the brightest researchers to continue uncovering faster diagnoses and better treatments to save lives. 

Please show me your support by donating to my fundraising campaign.
