Boys run for Boobs - 10 Days, 1000km
Story
Hi everyone, |
|
Myself and Ben Maddern are at it again. We have spontaneously decided to attempt to run 1000km in just 10 days in the uni holidays this July. Our Melbourne to Sydney run consisted of running 1000km over 21 days resulting in pure exhaustion and more injuries than you could poke a stick at. Needless to say this is a massive step up and we will be putting everything on the line to complete this run.
Due to the daunting nature of the run and uncertainty if we can even get to the 1000km, we are proposing sponsorship based on kms ran. This way every single km we run/walk/crawl we will be making money for the McGrath foundation. For example, if you pledge 1c per kilometre and we only complete 657km you donate $6.57 to the McGrath foundation. You could pledge 20c and we end up running 1011km in 10 days therefore donating $202.20 The bottom line is, when we are hurting… every km will matter and we will push. Please post your pledges in the comments section on this page or our blog (link below). Alternatively, you can simply donate a lump sum. Either way to donate click on the link below and follow the prompts.
Please follow and leave messages of support at: http://boysrunforboobs.weebly.com
Every dollar makes a difference and your donation will help the McGrath Foundation place McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia, and to increase breast awareness in young Australian women. To date, we have placed 82 Breast Care Nurses across Australia, who together have helped support over 19,300 families experiencing breast cancer.
100% of all donations will be donated to the McGrath Foundation and you will automatically receive a tax-deductible via email.
As they say at the McGrath Foundation, together, we can make a difference!
Activity
McGrath Foundation
The McGrath Foundation raises money to fund McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia. Our highly qualified nurses help individuals and their families experiencing breast cancer by providing physical, psychological and emotional support, for free.
From the time of diagnosis and throughout treatment, McGrath Breast Care Nurses are there to help. While over 110,000 families have been supported since 2005, more nurses are needed to meet the growing rate of breast cancer diagnosis in Australia.
With your help, no one misses out on care. Visit www.mcgrathfoundation.com.au to find out more.
