'Having a Go' Tough Guy/Gal Aug 2008

'Having a Go' Tough Guy/Gal Aug 2008

 
Page Creator: KAREN WEMYSS
Event: adidas Auckland Marathon 2008
Event Date: 2/11/2008

Life is too short I say so 'Have a Go!!!!! ….. While deployed in East Timor with the RNZAF I developed a dream of running (or plodding in my case) a Half Marathon. On 02nd November 2008 I will be running over the Harbour Bridge as part of the RNZAF Supply team as I compete in and complete my very first Auckland Half Marathon!!

I've signed up as a "Heart Racer" for this event to raise money to support The National Heart Foundation of NZ. By donating through my webpage you will be helping the Heart Foundation continue its vital work in research, cardiac rehabilitation, education programmes and resources. So often only a small percentage of donations get to the charity - this way - it all gets there!!

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

In young people much of this is due to unhealthy lifestyles - poor eating habits, lack of physical activity etc.

So, please, help the Heart Foundation, and my motivation by sponsoring me!!

Select the "Make a donation" button. It?s simple, fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundation?s bank account.

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

Feel free to pass this on to your family and friends - I would appreciate their support too!!

Check back here from time to time - I will try to update my "blog" on a regular basis Monday.

Thanks heaps in advance for your support for such a good cause; I am really excited about 'Having a Go'!!!

Cheers
Kaaz
