PAGE CREATOR: Ken Hardman
EVENT: The Everest Marathon
EVENT DATE: 10/01/2012

My name is Ken Hardman and this year I'm taking on The Everest Marathon (as a 60th birthday present to myself!) which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the highest marathon in the world. Crazy? Maybe...

Aside from the personal challenge I'm aiming to raise at least $10,000 for charity before I leave for the race.

I'll do all the hard work; train for and complete this event, but I really need your help to make a difference to the two charities I'll be supporting - Cure Kids www.curekids.org.nz and the Everest Marathon Fund: http://www.everestmarathon.org.uk/index.php/everest-marathon-fund

Will you join me in taking on Everest?

Select the 'Make a donation' button below. It's simple, fast and totally secure.

If you live in New Zealand your donation is tax deductible and a receipt will be issued. All of my fundraising money will be collected by Cure Kids via Fundraise Online who will then give half of all monies raised to the Everest Marathon Fund. The other half will go to Cure Kids to help fund medical research into life-threatening illnesses that affect kids.

I am open to any and all fundraising opportunities and media around what I am doing as long as it helps raise funds for my charities. I can be contacted directly on:

Ken Hardman
PO Box 260, Arrowtown 9351, New Zealand
Cell: 021 331 105 or ken@theprojectmanager.co.nz

Many thanks for your support and please don't hesitate to contact me!
