    Scott's 9th Marathon / 13th Great Walk for Telethon was held on the 7th of July 2022. His little brother Damien was out the front on his pushbike setting the pace for the 6th time. Mum was on an electric scooter and Dad was in the support vehicle. The crew from Mineral Resources (Koolyanobbing Mine Site) came out to the start line with a $2,500 donation towards Scott's Telethon total and cheered Scott and Damien off on their 42.195km journey. MGM Bulk Truck Drivers, Farmers and neighbours stopped along the way to give some encouragement and donations.

    Year 10... Study, Stress, Breathe, Repeat

    At the end of 2021 Scott and his friends had a chat about what Year 10 was like for them. Study (or lack there of for Scott) became important as they took on their first lot of exams. There were masks, lockdowns and a River Cruise along the way as everyone tried to find balance between school, study, sport, out of school commitments, work and having time to catch up with friends. They have a chat about the things that did and didn't help them through it all.

    Scott's 8th Marathon/12th Great Walk for Telethon

    On WA Day, June 7th 2021 Scott completed his 12th Great Walk/8th 42.195km Marathon down the Koolyanobbing Road to raise money for Telethon. It was his toughest challenge yet. Being sick in the week leading up to it triggered his asthma and his lungs were struggling. Scott knew that if he went ahead there was no way he could make the 6 hour record time he was aiming for. He thought about it and decided his time wasn’t what was important, doing what he could to help was and while he wouldn’t be able to push for a record time he hoped he would be able to complete the Marathon. It was his little brother Damien's 5th year setting the pace. In this episode Damien and Scott have a chat about the lead up to the Marathon and what happened on the Marathon day.

    Scott's 7th Marathon/11th Great Walk for Telethon

    2020 is a year that's been filled with uncertainty, lockdowns and social distancing. One thing that remained the same was Scott completing his Great Walk for Telethon. On WA Day, June 1st Scott completed his 7th Marathon/11th Great Walk for Telethon. It was a battle for Scott to get through the 42.195km as he pushed himself past his limits to try and achieve a new record finish time. In this episode Scott's little brother (and Marathon Pacesetter) Damien asks Scott about the Marathon Day. It also includes recordings Scott took throughout the Marathon. As we get further into the Marathon you can hear Scott's realtime, raw and honest account of the toll the challenge takes on him and his body.

    It's never too late to change the path you're on.....

    While Scott was in Canada for Christmas he had a chat to his Aunt Matee and Uncle Braye about their journeys from High School, to Uni, to the workforce, to pursuing their dreams of acting which has taken them from Perth, Western Australia to Vancouver, Canada. It wasn't the path they thought they would take when they were in High School but it shows that the best laid plans (or in some cases undecided plans) can end up taking you to places you hadn't even imagined yet.
