Why are they running? Paityn - City 2 Surf 2012

2 weeks to go! 2 weeks to go! 2 weeks to go!
We are getting excited now and being her second time around taking on the Sydney City 2 Surf, Paityn knows just what she is in for!
At only 15 years of age Paityn asked us if she could be a part of our Running The Marathon of Autism team for the second year and of course we said Absolutely!
Paityn has been doing odd runs around her local area for training and can't wait for race day. When asked why is she wanting to do this 14kms for Felicity, Paityn told us: "the main reason was obviously to raise money but also because while she goes through so much for an 11 yr old every day of her life raising money and pushing myself to finish 14km run is nothing compared to what Fliss and you guys do"
What an inspiration you are Miss Paityn! We are behind your efforts the whole way!!

Why are they running? Anton - City 2 Surf 2012

With just a little over 4 weeks until the City 2 Surf we thought we should introduce our awesome 2012 Running The Marathon of Autism runners. We have Four participants who will take part in the 14km fun run on August 12th and the only one of those four who will be running in the famous race for the first time is Anton.
Anton has been training for he race with runs & bike rides around his local area and can't wait to cross the finish line at famous Bondi Beach!!
Dad of two little ones and a member of Felicty's extended family we asked Anton why he wanted to join our team this year...
"Being Felicity's Uncle, I have known her from when she was a little baby and have seen all the huge changes in her life. I am running in the City 2 Surf for the first time this year and would love to do it in support of Felicity, her family and what the Son-Rise Program has brought into their lives"
