Hi everyone! I am raising money to run the Falmouth Road Race with the Parkinson’s Champions Team. My grandfather, Chris O’Brien, passed last year after being diagnosed with a rare form of Parkinsonian disease. I am raising money and running this race in his memory, and to raise money to help fund research for Parkinson’s. Please consider donating to help reach my goal!
Description
I'm ready to run.
I'm running to raise funds and awareness with the Parkinson's Champions. I'm challenging myself to run the marathon to support the Parkinson’s Foundation.
The Parkinson's Foundation makes life better for people living with Parkinson's disease by improving care and advancing research toward a cure. Studies show that 2.5 hours of weekly exercise along with medication, can significantly improve quality of life for people living with Parkinson's. We run and will continue to run for people with Parkinson's because this disease not a sprint, it’s a marathon. Every dollar counts, thank you for your support!
