Event: adidas Auckland Marathon 2006

Event Date: 29/10/2006

Hi
I am participating in the Auckland Marathon, and as well as fulfilling a personal goal to complete a full marathon, I am raising money for the Heart Foundation.

This cause is important to me, as my Dad died of congestive heart failure in July 2005. The Heart Foundation were very helpful during his illness and gave us a lot of support.

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.

But 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.

Iâ€™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.

Iâ€™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. Itâ€™s simple, fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundationâ€™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 everyone you know!

Many thanks for your support
