We are running to raise awareness for Type 1 Diabetes. All proceeds raised will go to SCSNZ who are a research group based in the Centre for Innovation in Dunedin. They have a scientific team studying stem cells and regenerative medicine for the betterment of human health, in particular - Type 1 diabetes, spinal cord injuries and other auto immune diseases.

Shane’s friend Sam, has had type 1 diabetes for 21 years. She was diagnosed at the age of 7 and her family’s world flipped upside down! Jenna is running for a friend, Jaylen-Blaze. JB is 5 years old and was diagnosed 5 years ago. JB was going to do the 10 km run himself but is having problems with his legs so is only allowed to do short stints of exercise. The video above shows the day in the life of JB!……we all want a cure!
