Story
My wife Susan was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s at the age of 65 in October 2020. I became seriously ill in October 2016 with a life threatening condition called PAN PolyArteritis Nodosa. While I have been able to make a modest recovery and keep running, Susan is being increasingly affected by her illness. I launched my fundraising for Alzheimer’s Research UK with my Platinum 70th Parkrun on the weekend of the Queen’s Jubilee and will continue at least until I complete my 100th Parkrun! It is hoped that improved treatments for Alzheimer’s will be available by 2025.
