My Dedication

My 35km walk is dedicated to the memory of my Daughter, Bethaney Hope Blundell

Hi Friends,

Team RedHotChilliSteppers, including yours truely, are taking on the big walk to raise awareness and funds for researching Mitochondrial diseases in Adelaide Australia.

This cause is very close to my heart 💚. Our dear Bethaney valiantly faced Alpers syndrome caused by POLG, a genetic mutation which caused her mitochondria to be unable to be replaced. Raising awareness of Mito can help with earlier diagnosis and better medical outcomes.

I'm Walking 35km to Cure Mito in The Bloody Long Walk!

I'm walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk to help Australians living with mitochondrial disease.

That’s 46,200 steps in one day!

I know I’ll cross the finish line exhausted and blistered, but that’s nothing compared to what people with mitochondrial disease (mito) go through every day of their lives.

Mito robs the body’s cells of energy, causing multiple organ dysfunction or failure. It can affect anyone at any age.

Please sponsor my walk to fund research into desperately needed treatments and cures for this devastating disease.

Every dollar will make a difference!

My 35km walk will be bloody tough, but with your support, I know I can do it.

THANK YOU!

I will always carry Beth in my heart I had the privilege of being her speech pathologist for a number of years in South Africa. She once gave me a painted rock of a ladybug which I still hold dear. Bugz speech pathology supports this incredible cause. Beth is smiling her beautiful smile as you walk to honour her today.
