Bryce & Jannay Grove's Fundraising Page

PAGE CREATOR:	Bryce Grove
EVENT:	adidas Auckland Marathon 2007
EVENT DATE:	28/10/2007

Hi
Jannay and Bryce are running their first fun run, and we have been training for the last 10 weeks to give this a go. Both if us havent hit the pavements for the last 10 years, so it has been a shock to the system. We have also put our names down to help raise money for the charity that will benifit from the funds raised.

Each day 16 New Zealanders die as a result of coronary heart disease. That's one person every 90 minutes. And many of these deaths are premature and preventable.

Cardiovascular disease (heart, stroke & blood vessel disease) is the single leading cause of death in New Zealand. It causes 40 percent of all deaths annually in our country - making it more deadly than all forms of cancer.

The nature of who is affected by it is changing. New research shows that young adults in their 20s and 30s are being admitted to hospital for heart attacks more than ever before, and that this age group is dying at a faster rate than people of the same age in previous generations. Much of this change is due to unhealthy lifestyles - poor eating habits, lack of physical activity and being a smoker.

But the good news is that many risk factors for heart disease are preventable, if people make healthy lifestyle choices.

So, help us as we join the race to beat heart disease.

We've signed up as a Heart Racer to raise money to support The National Heart Foundation of New Zealand. By donating through our webpage you will be helping the Heart Foundation continue its vital work in research, cardiac rehabilitation, education programmes and resources.

So, please could you sponsor us?

Select the "Make a donation" button below. Its simple, fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundations bank account.

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

So please help us today! And pass it on to your family and friends!

Many thanks for your support

Thank you, and will let you know how much Jannay beats me by.
