ANTHONY COPELAND PARKER: Who Runs The World?! Tony & Cat. That's who.

Love Conquers Alz

Anthony "Tony" Copeland-Parker is back for a record 3rd time on Love Conquers Alz... and Don and I are thrilled. Tony and his, partner Cat, have a unique and inspiring story that has been unfolding before our eyes and this new chapter is as heartening as ever.
For those who may not be familiar with Tony andhis partner, Cat, here's a little background to get you up to speed. (I'm killing it with the running puns!) Tony and Cat were in there 50s going their merry way, when they were presented two life-changing pieces of news...at the same time. Tony was told he needed a heart valve replacement and Cat had early-onset Alzheimer’s. But both being endurance athletes, their reaction to this news was, let's say, unique. They retired, sold their home, & became nomads, running marathons & half-marathons - literally over the world.
Their book, Running All over the World, Our Race Against Early Onset Alzheimer’s, is an engaging travelogue with a heart. Don't let the word "Alzheimer's" give you the wrong impression! It's filled with fun, humor, heart, and adventure. It's chock-full of interesting facts and detailed travel advice. And if you ever thought about running a marathon, but just can't seem to check that off your list, you'll experience the thrill of the finish…blister-free! The book is an account of their 5+ years of flying, running, walking, sailing, & sightseeing from Atlanta to Antarctica and back again.
Now that Cat's Alzheimer's has progressed and she can no longer run marathons, she and Tony have embarked on a new chapter in their unique and awe-inspiring story. Enjoy this episode!
Love,
Susie
