Hey Punters, in today's episode we chat to the very inspiring Maddy- the sister of Alexa Leary, who had a horrific bike accident almost 3 months ago whilst training. In awe of how incredibly strong and resilient her little sister is and defying all the odds to stay alive, Maddy created the 'Move For Lex' Instagram to share her story and spread the message. What started out as a little project to keep her focused on something positive, has since gone viral and has raised over $80k for the Royal Brisbane Hospital to help families going through a similar experience. This family shows such incredible strength supporting each other on this crazy rollercoaster and Maddy does an amazing job at sharing their story! Get behind it bby's! #moveforlex
