Running the TransLantau 100km for MND

Bay of Plenty, Tauranga City

Some of you may remember that I ran for MND last year. This year, I am back at Hong Kong taking on the TransLantau 100km, pushing further across a tough course in honour of my beautiful Mum, Adrienne, who lost her battle with Motor Neurone Disease in December 2015.

Mum is always in my thoughts, and not a day goes by where we don’t miss her vibrant spirit, quick wit, and kind heart. Knowing she has missed being a part of our lives over the last ten years leaves an immense hole in the Scott/Laney family.

That loss, and the urgent need for a cure, is the driving force behind challenging myself out on the trails. I want to honour her memory by making every kilometre count.

If you are able, please consider donating to MND New Zealand. Your support means the world to our family and goes directly toward finding a cure for this cruel disease.
