The Goal

Lachlan's goal is to run a marathon in every state of the USA and Australia in 58 consecutive days, marking a world-first achievement. This epic journey will begin in Alaska on January 22nd, 2025, and conclude in Brisbane on March 20th, 2025.

From Lachlan:

Why take on this massive task? In the past I've constantly struggled with doubt—never believing in myself, not liking who I was, and not trusting my own abilities.

 

That doubt made me feel like a failure, and I turned to drinking and drugs just to escape the person I couldn’t stand to be.


I wasn’t the man that could. But over the past decade, I’ve turned that around. Now, I’m running to show every man out there that they can rise above, just like I did.


Because too many men, especially under 40, are losing hope, and we need to change that.

​My mission is to run 58 marathons in 58 days across 58 states, raising $100,000 for the Mental Awareness Foundation.

 

But this journey is about more than just numbers—it's about inspiring men everywhere to rise above their challenges, proving that no matter how lost or doubtful you may feel, you can become the man that can.
