The more I talk to people about my involvement in the Fight Dementia campaign and the more I realise just how many people have have been touched by this disease.

In 2012 I ran my second marathon as a fundraiser for Alzheimer’s Australia and raised around $3,000.  The messages of support and donations from friends, families and colleagues was amazing.

What truly surprised me was the amount of support and encouragement I received from complete strangers and anonymous donors.  It was both overwhelming and very humbling.
