Australia's Toughest Park Run

Jamie Milne’s World Record Attempt. Carrying the Weight for Kids.

On 7 November, Jamie Milne from JMT will take on an extraordinary challenge at Australia’s Toughest Parkrun in Nambour, attempting to complete the 5km course while carrying a 40kg deadball.

It’s a World Record attempt, but the record isn’t really the point. Jamie is carrying that weight to represent something far more important, the weight that too many children and young people are asked to carry through life. For some kids, childhood comes with challenges most of us could barely imagine. Family breakdown, disadvantage, uncertainty, trauma and circumstances completely beyond their control can make simply being a kid incredibly difficult.

Jamie’s view is no kid should have to carry the weight of their world alone. That’s why he is taking on this challenge for Inclusive Kids, raising funds to help create opportunities, practical support and moments of belonging for children and young people who need someone in their corner.

The Challenge

• 40 kilograms.
• 5 kilometres.
• Australia’s Toughest Parkrun.
• Nambour, 7 November 2026

Every step will hurt. Every hill will make that 40kg feel heavier and every kilometre will be a reminder of why this challenge matters. Because unlike Jamie, who gets to put the weight down when he crosses the finish line, some kids don't get that choice.

Help Jamie Carry the Load. 

We’re asking our community to get behind Jamie and turn this World Record attempt into something much bigger than a sporting achievement.

Donate. 

Share the challenge, sponsor a kilometre, get your workplace involved or simply tell someone what Jamie is doing and why. Every dollar raised will support the work of Inclusive Kids, helping children and young people participate, belong and experience opportunities that many of us take for granted.

JMT will carry the 40kg and together, we can help carry some of the weight for kids who need us.

Your support will help Jamie to continue his desire to support our Fuel for School Program. Fuel 4 School is a program that ensures children have access to healthy snacks, helping them stay focused and energised throughout the school day. By supporting this initiative, you're helping kids who might show up to school without food in their lunch box, because no child should have to learn on an empty stomach.
