Breast Cancer and Alzheimer's fight!
My name is Fast Eddy and on March 1st, 2015, I will be running across Canada and back (21,585km) all to raise money and awareness in the name of Alzheimer's and Breast Cancer. Personally affected by both diseases; my grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and my professor was a found advocate of Breast Cancer awareness and in his passing I decided to double up this run and include his cause. With no vehicle following or support team by my side; all items will be mailed to me along the way and or carried in my jogging stroller which I will be pushing across Canada. 62km average a day, singing karaoke, and hoping to inspire children and adults to follow their dreams and no matter the costs. This 354 day adventure is nearing, any donations help… and what a way to invest in someone; “You can realize you are alive, but only until you are living can you truly appreciate the life you have been given; help someone in need and return the favour.”
