“Sometimes the moments that challenge us the most, define us”. Deena Kastor, Olympic Marathoner...

I have set myself quite some challenges... to raise $10,000 for a great cause and to run the ING New York Marathon!! With only a few weeks to go I still need raise a few more dollars so if you can, dig deep and help save lives!

After losing my mum and dad to heart disease, I have set myself the goals of getting really healthy and reducing the risk of going the same way. I have also taken on the responsibility of caring for kids who face many uphill challenges of their own, including chronic heart and lung disease. By donating here you will be helping those kids and thousands of others in Australia who need it.

Thanks a million to everyone who has already supported me and to those that will over the next few weeks!
