Giving something back

It’s approximately 11 weeks or so to my first half marathon. I’ve decided to help the National Heart Foundation of New Zealand win the race against heart disease by becoming a Heart Racer.

What this means is that I’m going to try and raise some funds for the Heart Foundation of New Zealand.  They are a really worthy cause so if you feel that you could make a small donation by sponsoring me then they, and I, would be very appreciative.

Note for my US readers that 1 New Zealand dollar = about 75 US cents.
