Every Kiwi knows someone with a breathing condition.
Respiratory conditions like asthma, COPD and bronchiectasis affect 1 million New Zealanders. That’s 1 in 5 of us. It’s the third most common cause of death and costs us $8.4 billion each year.
The Asthma and Respiratory Foundation NZ wants to see those figures change. We educate, advocate, support and research to improve the lives of Kiwis with respiratory conditions. Find out more about our work here!
After a successful event last year, the Foundation are bringing back Laps for Lungs, for 2024.
Last year's event saw Better Breathing Hero Nick Ashill running laps around Boyd-Wilson Field at Victoria University - for 48 HOURS STRAIGHT! This year, we want you to set yourself a time goal and get active by doing laps. Whether you run, bike, walk, cycle, swim or scoot... Every lap counts.
