Exercise Your Bones
Creator Sallyanne Luxton
Close at Friday, 6 November 2009

Every 8 minutes, a patient suffering an osteoporotic fracture is admitted to an Australian hospital. By the year 2021, this is expected to rise to every 3-4 minutes with an aging population.

Statistics show that 1 in every 2 women and 1 in every 3 men aged over 60 in Australia suffer an osteoporotic fracture.

One of the key methods to assist in the prevention of osteoporosis in later years is regular physical activity.

My main goal in running the Blackmores Running Festival is to raise money for OA and promote that participation in any type of regular physical activity regardless of age or ability is a beneficial investment in our future.

I welcome any contribution, great or small, that you could make and trust that those old sports shoes are back on your feet!

Osteoporosis Australia

Osteoporosis Australia (OA) is a national charity, and our vision is Healthy Bones for all Australians For Life. We aim to improve bone health in the community and prevent fractures suffered by people with osteoporosis. We provide information and education programs for the community & Health Professionals. We also support medical research and conduct advocacy work. Osteoporosis is a major public health issue. 1 in 2 women and 1 in 3 men over 60 will suffer a fracture due to osteoporosis. This has a significant impact on the healthcare system and on a person's quality of life. Help us build strong bones!
