Team SASS is ready to kick some ... pavement!
Once again this dream team of elite athletes is lacing up their running shoes to raise money to find a cure for MPS II. We can't think of a better reason to prancercize ourselves around a scenic 10km. We'll be thinking about Jack and the other kids fighting their MPS battle with every step!
You can read about MPS and our hope for a cure at http://www.theisaacfoundation.com. MPS II is a very rare genetic disease that can cause serious physical and cognitive effects. Every part of your body can be affected, including your brain, heart, lungs, eyes, and muscles and joints. The life expetancy for children with the severe form of the disease is early teens. Jack Higginson was diagnosed with the milder form of MPS II when he was only 3 years old and his family, friends and community have been working hard every since to raise money to find a cure for this disease and others like it.

Love from, S.A.S.S (that's Sarah, Alison, Sandra and Sarah!!) oxox
