100km for Parkinson’s Disease

Supporting Parkinson's Australia Limited

On the 26th of March 2025, I'll be taking on the challenge of running the buffalostampede_au - an ultra-endurance race spanning 101km with 5,000 meters of elevation gain.

I'm using this run to raising awareness and funds for Parkinsons disease.

Parkinsons is the second most common neurological disease after dementia, affecting approximately 200,000 Australians. It's a devastating condition that profoundly impacts not only those living with it but also their families and loved ones.


My family experienced this first-hand through my Nonna, Maria Dimasi, who battled Parkinsons for 25 years before her passing. Sadly, I never had the chance to see her in full health, but through my mums recent stories I've come to understand just how remarkable a woman she was. She was a battler who I now draw strength from when tackling training or anything challenging in life.

Any donations, no matter how big or small, are hugely appreciated and going to an amazing cause.
