Run, Run, Run for Love.

NEON EXTREME: the Brady Bunch of the Cape 13 Relay

Team NEON EXTREME is running The Second Annual Cape 13 Relay (learn more here) on May Friday, May 6th - Saturday, May 7th, to raise money for a brain disease called Frontotemporal Dementia or FTD. FTD is the second most common form of dementia, however, there is no government funding, no preventative medicine and no cure. Because of the ignorance surrounding FTD, people are misdiagnosed every day.

Alexandra Sparks, the team leader, and one of our all-star runners, Graham Sparks, are personally affected by this disease. Their father was diagnosed in 2004. For a look into their family's fight with FTD, watch the CNN special featuring the Sparks family here (filmed in 2009).

Please help us fight this horrible disease by donating to our efforts.
Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward our fundraising page onto anyone who you think might want to donate too!help us fight this horrible disease by donating to our efforts.
And, a special thanks to our friend, our mascot, and our competition, Schneider-face. Love ya, babe!
