Fame

The run is over, the money is banked.

Thanks again to everyone that supported me financially and otherwise in the lead up to the race and on the day.

Your support of The Warwick Foundation meant the total raised was $5500, the 7th highest amount for an individual (12000 people participated).

The Warwick Foundation is a small organisation with a big mandate and each dollar donated to them goes a long way.

I also achieved my two minutes of fame when ran a piece on me, the run and the Foundation.

    That is a truly awesome piece, and I am not talking about the news story (which is amazing)! Orange one-piece jumpsuit needs to get another airing. Well done BB x

    Great to meet you at the Cancer Council workshop.

    Do you know if this video is still available online anywhere?
