Tasmanian Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) threathens the existence of the Tasmanian Devil.
The 'Devil Islanders' are a group of 10 concerned people who are dedicated to raising $130,000 to finance projects to help protect the Tasmanian Devil from extinction.
The ages of the members range from 40 to 65 and averages 56.
From an overweight, unfit and sedentary life they have rallied to the cause to show life can begin at 40, 50, 60 or whatever time one feels determined enough to reach the goal—which for them was competing in the London Marathon on April 13th, 2008.
The team consists of Tasmanians, Poms, a Kiwi and a Canadian. A formidable combination.
