This year, we're swapping our signature socks for something a little more versatile...

Introducing our 2026 Two Feet & A Heartbeat multiway bandana! 💙

Every registered walker will receive an exclusive 2026 multiway bandana, free with registration. Wear it around your neck, wrist, hair or ankle, or tie it proudly to a pram.

However you wear it, let it represent your heart story and our united community.

You can collect your bandana on event day or choose to have it posted to you for an additional cost.

Stay tuned for all the different ways we'll be wearing ours. 👀

👣 Two Feet & A Heartbeat registrations are now OPEN for 2026!

Join us this October as we honour those impacted by childhood-onset heart disease. We walk for the heart kids showing extraordinary courage every day, and for those whose lives were far too short but remain forever in our hearts.

Because once you're a heart family, you're always a heart family.
Once a heart parent, always a heart parent.

Once a heart kid, always a heart kid — whether you're 7, 17 or 70.
When you register, you'll receive a special Two Feet & A Heartbeat bandana. Wear it with pride as a headscarf, neck scarf, hair tie, around your wrist, arm, or ankle, or tied to a pram. However you wear it, let it tell your heart story and show that you belong to something bigger.

Lets come together as one big community. ❤️
