Event: adidas Auckland Marathon 2007

Event Date: 28/10/2007

Hi Everyone,

I am about to embark on my second Auckland Half Marathon (with my trusty training buddy Kirst) and I can't wait!! It is a fantastic event not to be missed, so this year we're dragging along a new addition to our team ... Tania!! I don't think we've managed to convince her that getting up at 4am on a Sunday is a good idea (especially when we walk past all the party animals on our way to the ferry), or that the Auckland Harbour Bridge isn't quite as daunting as it seems ... but I am confident that at the end of the run she will be as hooked on it as we are!!

It has amazed me to learn that 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.

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

So, help me as I join the race to beat heart disease.

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

I'll do all the hard work (train for and complete the event), but I really need you to make a difference to the hearts of New Zealanders.

So, please could you sponsor me?

Select the "Make a donation" button below. It’s simple, 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.

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

Many thanks for your support

Mich :)
