What an incredible celebration the #WorldRiverRun has been!

From Kenya to Mexico, classrooms to riverbanks, people everywhere came together to celebrate and protect our rivers.

A huge thank you to @wetlandsint.bsky.social, and to each of you who brought this movement to life.

Until next time! 🙏💙

That’s a WRAP on the #WorldRiverRun! 🎉🏃‍♀️🌊

From every corner of the world, thousands of us moved for our rivers, filling #WorldRiversDay with power, purpose and unstoppable spirit.

Massive thanks to everyone who stepped up. I’m blown away by the energy of this incredible community 🙏

For 24 hours, people everywhere will run, walk or move for our rivers by taking one small action to protect them.

Each action, shared across the world, will build into a powerful movement for the ecosystems that give us life. #WorldRiverRun

Rivers are critical wetland ecosystems. They supply us with water for drinking and agriculture, provide livelihoods for over a billion people, and sustain diverse and endangered biodiversity. #WorldRiverRun

📣💧🏃 Announcing the #WorldRiverRun 2025! 📣💧🏃‍

On 28 September, World Rivers Day, we’re partnering with @wetlandsint.bsky.social to bring back a #RunBlue classic: the #WorldRiverRun!

Later today I’ll be speaking at the #FreshwaterChallenge event about why accelerating collective action on the ground is so important, and how this challenge is helping to make it happen.

I started all of this as just one crazy person running alone in the middle of the desert. Today, there are thousands of us behind #RunBlue. Never underestimate the impact you can make, or your ability to bring your community with you.

Your marathon doesn't have to look like mine.

Maybe yours is organising a clean-up at your local river. Maybe it's rethinking what you eat, wear, or throw away. Maybe it's simply reminding yourself every morning that you have the power to make change in your own life and the lives of others.

But I do it because it takes me to the front lines of the water crisis. It lets me understand the challenges, and experience firsthand what it means to live and breathe this reality every single day.

It shows people that we can do hard things, and why those hard things need to be done.

People often meet me and say, 'You must be an amazing runner.' I'm not. So far from it. I find it really hard and, to be honest, I don't really enjoy it.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you can really make a difference, ask yourself this instead:

If not me, then who?
If not now, then when?

#PlasticFreeJuly starts today! None of us can do everything, but all of us can do something.

The 5Rs serve as a compass, helping us rethink our relationship with plastic:

🛑 Refuse what you don’t need
➖ Reduce what you do
🔁 Reuse what you can
🔧 Repurpose creatively
♻️ Recycle only as a last resort

Word of the Day: Pluviophile 🌧️🌿

If you’ve ever smiled at the rain tapping on your roof, watched its droplets race down your window, or stepped outside just to breathe the air after it falls — this one’s for you 💧💙

Happy Mother’s Day to my awesome, beautiful, amazing Mama!

Thank you for the endless love, the pep talks, the laughs, and the way you somehow always know exactly what I need (even before I do!)

You’re my rock, my cheerleader, my heart.

Love you always, Mama

On #WorldHealthDay, we’re reminded that health is about more than hospitals and medicines. It’s about the conditions that allow people to live with dignity and safety.

Let’s make sure no one is left behind.

These aren’t just numbers. They’re daily realities for communities that are facing higher rates of disease, greater economic hardship, and fewer opportunities for education and work.

Clean water, sanitation and hygiene are the foundation of public health, but they’re still out of reach for too many people.

Over 1.5 billion people don’t have basic sanitation. Millions still defecate in the open. Nearly half of the world’s household wastewater flows untreated back into nature.

This is what the global water crisis looks like. It’s not just about scarcity – it’s about water arriving in the wrong places, at the wrong times.

To the communities impacted by these floods, we feel for you as you navigate this unprecedented challenge.

I remember reading about the Birdsville Track as a kid. It had this air of mystery, an endless road into the Outback. I imagined the dust, the heat, the legendary Birdsville Hotel standing against the elements. What I never imagined was how quickly this landscape could shift from drought to flood.
March 27, 2025 at 11:35 AM
While this region is no stranger to floods, the sheer scale of this event is unprecedented. Some places have seen a year’s worth of rain in just days, cutting off towns and isolating communities.
March 27, 2025 at 11:35 AM
Almost exactly three years ago, I ran through Birdsville as part of our #RunBlue campaign. Back then, it was red desert – dry, hot, stretching endlessly in every direction. The town hadn’t seen rain in a while.

Wow. Just wow. It’s been a few days, and we're still in awe of the #WorldWaterRelay and our extraordinary community that made it happen.

Stay tuned. Our final video is coming soon, and we can’t wait to share it with you all! 🏞️🏃‍♀️🎥

That’s a WRAP on the #WorldWaterRelay! 🌍💧🏃‍♀️

For 24 hours, you passed the baton across continents, time zones, and communities, showing the world that together, we are unstoppable.

Stay tuned for our EPIC #WorldWaterRelay video next week, featuring all of you, passing the baton across the world 💙

Final stretch of the #WorldWaterRelay, let’s go! 🌎💧🏃🏼‍♀️
March 22, 2025 at 10:14 PM
Thousands of people around the world are giving their #HourForEarth by running the #WorldWaterRelay - taking 60 minutes of action for our planet’s most precious resource. How are you celebrating #EarthHour? 🌍💧
