Kane Cornes Telethon marathon fundraiser

Overview

AFL legend and broadcaster Kane Cornes is undertaking a dual marathon challenge to raise funds for Telethon, a charity supporting sick children in Western Australia.

The challenge involves running the Perth Running Festival marathon, followed four days later by a second 42km marathon around Rottnest Island. Cornes will be joined by several figures, including Western Australian Premier Roger Cook, while commentator Luke Hodge is set to participate by skydiving over Rottnest during the second run.

The total funds raised from these efforts are expected to be announced during the 59th annual Telethon, scheduled for October 17-18 at RAC Arena.
