Jog for Joe: Half Marathon 💙

Danielle Cappello is raising money for Butterfly Foundation
In memory of Joe Cappello

Gold Coast Running Festival Half Marathon · 26 April 2026

Butterfly is the national charity for people living in Australia impacted by eating disorders & body image issues. Butterfly changes lives by providing innovative, evidence-based support services, treatment & resources, prevention & early intervention programs, & by advocating for our community.

Story

In memory of my beautiful brother Joe, I am running a half marathon to raise money for the Butterfly Foundation.

Joe fought anorexia for a long part of his life and he lost his battle in August 2025.

He is the most passionate and vibrant person I had the privilege to know. I am running this race (despite being awful very beginner runner) to raise awareness for eating disorders.

Joe wanted us to talk about these issues, start conversations about them and reach out to others. 💗💙

Vision: For all people in Australia to live free of eating disorders and negative body image.

Mission: We work to prevent eating disorders and body image issues from occurring, to ensure the best possible treatments are available, and that appropriate care and support is there for those affected.
