Only 3 weeks to go ....

Hi Everyone

Wanting to say a big thank you to everyone who has donated some cash, bought some cheese, a cupcake or a raffle ticket to help me on my way to achieving the fundraising target of $800 ... every little bit helps and if you have some coin to throw my way, pop on over to my fundraising page and donate please.

Only 3 weeks to go and thanks to the encouragement and support of my coach and fellow runners, I'm actually improving ... ever so slightly but feeling a lot more confident in achieving the goal of running (with maybe a little walking) 10k on the 2nd July.

If you ever thought of getting some exercise in a team environment, head over to the Can Too website and check out the events to choose from. Having done the swim and now the run program ... it certainly gives you a sense of worth to contribute to an organisation so involved in supporting cancer research. You also come out a winner when you finish the swim/run on event day ... no matter what your time, you are a winner.

Thanks in advance xx

I'm training with Can Too for the Gold Coast 10km run!

I am training for an event with Can Too, a health promotion organisation that engages and inspires individuals and the community to achieve personal health, wellbeing and altruistic goals.

Beginners and experienced athletes alike are given professional coaching as part of a team to run or swim in endurance events- including 10km, half-marathon and marathon runs; as well as ocean swims and triathlons.

In return, I am raising valuable funds that go towards innovation in the prevention, care and control of cancer. In 2015, the Can Too community has supported 12 early career researchers through Cure Cancer Australia.

Thank you for supporting me!

‘It’s so much fun and I can’t believe I’m going to achieve this goal that I never thought possible. A great program and team support is making it possible. You Can Too!’
