Running for fun and a very worthwhile cause!

March 7, 2012 Suzie

It is possible to exercise, fundraise, inspire and be completely awesome all at the same time… Do something fun and memorable this Mother’s Day!

This Mother’s Day May12th I ask you to put your shoes on and get walking or running for breast cancer. The Mother’s Day Classic is a fantastic event held every mothers day in the Domain in Sydney and Parramatta Park in Parramatta. You have the option of walking or running 4km or 8km, it’s about banding together and showing support for those who have been affected by breast cancer.

It’s something I feel strongly about and even though I am not the greatest runner i’ve been proud to participate for the past few years.

 

“The initiative was inspired by the knowledge that research is gradually improving the survival rate of the one in nine women who will be diagnosed with breast cancer by the age of 85.

All proceeds from the Mother’s Day Classic are donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, a not for profit organisation that promotes and supports research into breast cancer prevention and treatment. Since 1998 the Mother’s Day Classic has raised  $10.8 million dollars”

I am putting it out there to women and men of all ages and fitness levels to join me this year as a team initiative. Let’s support each other and promote this worthy cause.

Join team Rêve and be part of something special. If you are interested in participating please send me an email via my contact page and let me know which event you are going to register for. You will then receive information on how to register in team Reve, and weekly homework aimed to get you ready for your specified race. It doesn’t matter whether you have ever run before, these 8week programs will get you ready for the event, you’re not alone, I’m here to help!!

Whether you personally have been affected by breast cancer, whether it was your mother, grandmother, aunty, sister, cousin, daughter, friend or no one at all; let’s come together and show our support. Let’s inspire others by working hard and proving to ourselves that we can make a difference and can do anything we put our minds to.

One Sunday morning walk/jog can make a huge impact. I guarantee you willl finish with a smile on your face. Grab a friend or go it alone, get excited and get involved by emailing me now 🙂
