Melbourne Marathon (now closed we will have runners next year). Do you Run or Walk then on July 17 is Run Melbourne register now and support the Epilepsy Foundation.
In 2010 Tracey Warby ran the Melbourne Marathon in memory of her sister, Katherine. Message from Tracey
My beautiful Sister Katherine suffered epilespy and died suddenly during the night. I still wait for the Coroner's finding on her cause of death however Katherine's family suspect she died from a seizure. Money raised for the Epilepsy Foundation of Victoria is a way I can feel like I am giving back to Katherine and everyone else that is touched by epilepsy. Katherine loved watching sport and she would get a kick out of watching me suffer trying to run the half marathon.
