Jock Matthews Walks From Coffs Harbour To Brisbane To Raise Awareness For Cancer And Will Run The Fade With Anyone Along The Way

Ten days, one long road north and an open invitation to anyone who fancies a fade. Jock Matthews is walking from Coffs Harbour to Brisbane to raise awareness for cancer, setting off on the 17th.

The man behind Jockboxing is not keeping this one to himself. He says he will run the fade with anyone who wants it along the way, so if you live somewhere between the two cities, the next ten days could put gloves in your hands.

That is the kind of walk fight fans can get behind. Every town on the route is a chance to turn up, say g'day, lace up and back a cause that has touched nearly every family.

This is a long way to go on foot, and it is a big ask of a body that makes its name in the ring. Showing up for it says plenty about the bloke.

Follow @jockboxing for updates as the route comes together, and if you are on the Coffs to Brisbane stretch, get your gloves ready.
