My name is Mitch Brown and I was a friend of Pat Cronin whose life was tragically cut short by a coward punch in April 2016.
On Sunday the 19th of April 2020 I was supposed to be running a marathon from Bendigo to Heathcote as part of the O'Keefe Challenge and unfortunately it has been cancelled with the COVID 19 situation. Not to be deterred I am still going to run a 42km marathon but I will run on Good Friday (10/4/2020) leaving Lower Plenty Oval (where Pat and I played footy together) at 7.00am. I'll be running along the Plenty River and Yarra River Trails in my PC12 singlet.
I am looking to raise $3,000 to support the Pat Cronin Foundation and their Be Wise message to End the Coward Punch and make Australia a safer place for us all to live.
Please support me with any amount you can. All donations of $2 or more are tax deductible as the Pat Cronin Foundation is a registered charity.
