Our story…

This half-marathon isn't just a race; it's a heartfelt tribute to Clarice de Silva, whose radiant life was tragically cut short by the devastating grip of Alzheimer's. We witnessed firsthand the cruel impact this disease had, slowly, relentlessly, stealing her precious memories and, ultimately, taking her from a family who loved her beyond measure. The void she left is immense. Our team is lacing up to channel our grief into tangible action. Every stride we take, every mile we conquer, is dedicated to raising crucial funds for Alzheimer's research and vital care initiatives. We believe in a future where no family endures such a heartbreaking loss. Join us in honoring Clarice. Your support fuels the urgent quest for a cure, provides essential care, and reignites hope for millions facing this relentless disease. Together, we can make a difference.
