Get around it guys. 2 days to go Sam. You’ve got this
| JUST 2 DAYS TO GO! 💪 SAM Longmore will roll out of this morning with a guaranteed $100,000 for rural mental health after donations surged past the six-figure milestone overnight! 🙌🤩
Today, Sam will push herself along the rest of Burley Griffin Way to , where she’ll spend her last night on the road before tomorrow’s emotional final push into ! 🏁🥳
But today’s journey won’t be kind 😣
The Bureau of Meteorology is forecasting a top of just 9°C for today, with showers and gusty winds expected along much of the route 🌧️💨
If the forecast holds true, it will be the coldest weather Sam has encountered since her 441km wheelchair journey began in last Saturday 🥶
Tomorrow, she will leave Bowning via Walls Junction Road and join Lachlan Valley Way before tackling a short stretch along the Hume Highway to the Yass Service Centre exit.
From there, she’ll roll into Yass and complete several laps of the shared pathway at Riverbank Park before making the final push to Yass Racecourse, where a community celebration will welcome her across the finish line.
At this stage, the team expects Sam to arrive in Yass during the early afternoon, with a more accurate arrival time to be confirmed once she hits the road on Saturday morning.
The finish line is finally in sight. With more than 338km now behind her, just over 100km remain.
If you’ve been following Sam’s journey, now is the time to get behind her! You can contribute by donating directly via the link to Sam’s fundraising page in comments 👇
