"Be convinced that to be happy means to be free and that to be free means to be brave. Therefore do not take lightly the perils of war…"

I’m on a mission….a mission to help beat heart disease!

Well here we go again; I think I’m getting addicted to doing these heart foundation events.

After cycling from Auckland to Matamata in the ‘Great Ride for Heart’, I felt so good, not only with the achievement itself but also, more importantly with the fact that I felt really healthy and fit.

Now…a few months down the track with family and work commitments…especially family commitments I have tended to put exercising into the background again….sound familiar??

So when the opportunity of participating in the 2011 Les Mills Beat Camp (www.lesmills.co.nz/beatcamp) presented itself, I thought why not? I’ve always fantasized about what it would be like to join the Army!

My brother in law always says…”PAIN! THATS JUST WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY" so hopefully by the end of this I’ll be free from the weakness of leading a lifestyle that doesn’t involve regular exercise.

Heart disease is the single biggest killer of men and women in New Zealand.

I've signed up for ‘BeatCamp’ to raise money to support the Heart Foundation. By donating through my webpage you will be helping the Heart Foundation continue its vital work in research, cardiac rehabilitation, education programmes and resources. The simple fact is that it’s for a great cause, to fund the very important research carried out in an effort to prevent heart disease, one of the biggest diseases in NZ.

And as an added bonus, you can get to follow my progress and make fun of me doing 50 pushups…on my knuckles…maybe not 50, and 100 situps every morning while hanging from a bridge…well…I hope I’ll be able to do 20 by the end of all of this anyway.

Beat Camp – starts Monday 30 August with training sessions at 0615hrs on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Let me just bring to your attention….YES…that’s a 5am wake up call!!!

Together with Les Mills the aim is overall raise at least $100,000 to support the Heart Foundation Cardiovascular Research Fund. Because despite great improvements in the treatment and prevention of heart disease, more research into the areas of heart health and heart disease prevention is urgently needed in order to steer the decline of heart disease in New Zealand.

The money raised through BEATCAMP will support this work, ultimately helping to stop New Zealanders dying prematurely from heart disease.

Can you help?

Please support this great cause as I train and complete this event - by making a donation toward my personal target and goal of $1,000.

Should you choose to accept this mission please do the following steps:– just select the "Make a donation" button below – Yes, its that easy!

It's fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundation's bank account. If you live in New Zealand your donation is tax deductible and a receipt will be issued.

If you don’t want to pay by credit card – you can send a cheque to me at the Heart Foundation (make cheque payable to the Heart Foundation), PO Box 17160, Greenlane, Auckland.

Thanks heaps for your support – keep an eye on my Beat Camp page – I promise to provide you with some entertaining updates of my progress!

Thanks you so much, you’re dismissed soldier!
