Episode 97
Brett tells the story of collapsing about a kilometre into Mullum Mullum parkrun with a sudden cardiac arrest; six first responders performing CPR while a defibrillator granted by Maroondah Council two months earlier was run down from the start line; 12 days in hospital at Box Hill and an implanted defibrillator; the effect on his two sons and the community response; and the GoFundMe he launched to buy defibrillators for the ~45 Australian parkruns without one, which raised over $31,000 in about 10 days.
