Time's a-comin'

when people will read and heed the message of this blog. In the meantime, we are planning carefully for this 2,400 mile walk from Key West, Florida to the Canadian border in Maine.  This trek along U.S. Rt 1 will take us through a densely populated coastline with millions and millions of people along the way. Alzheimer's Disease more than likely affects many of the families of this area, and our goal is to raise funds and greater awareness of the good work of the Alzheimer's Association researchers, support systems, information and more.

New Zealand native Geoffrey Darling is not new to mega-marathon walks. In 2002 he walked the 600 miles of his native South Island, then presented performances of the Gospel of St Mark as a fundraiser for the Bible Society. This photo was taken on the walk near Timaru, South Island, New Zealand.

More about Geoffrey's amazing feats  of (and feet for) memory coming up!
