Alex's Marathon Effort

Page Creator: Alex O'Connor

Event: adidas Auckland Marathon 2007

Event Date: 28/10/2007

Ok, this is it. My first and last marathon!

Not quite sure what I've got myself into, but at least if I can convince you to make a small donation to the Heart Foundation, then someone will benefit from my pain!!

Goes without saying that the Heart Foundation is a pretty appropriate cause for our family at the moment. New Zealand loses too many people to heart attacks and strokes - we need to look after our hearts better!

Thanks all. I am also recruiting for cheerleaders, and possibly a body double for the last 10kms, if you're around on Oct 28.

See you at the finish!!

PS - If you live in New Zealand your donation is tax deductible and a receipt will be issued.
