Support my challenge to save Kiwi hearts like my own.

This May, I’m taking part in MyMarathon to raise funds for heart research that will help save lives.

My name is Olly, I'm 18 years old and I have been learning and training the physically strenuous art of boxing for 5 years.

Mid last year, whilst completing my medical for my amateur boxing license, I was found to have a congenital heart disease. 

This heart disease killed my dream of becoming a competitive boxer.

Heart disease doesn't have to end other potential athletes dreams in the same way it did for me. That is why I am taking part in this fundraiser - to help spread awareness of heart disease in athletes and to help raise funds to work towards solutions to this pressing issue.

I will be running 42km as my base for this challenge. For every $10 donation I receive, I will add 1km to my total running distance this coming month (with a maximum of 125kms). 

Every 90 minutes, a person dies of heart disease.

Heart disease is the single biggest killer in New Zealand, and I want to do something to support the thousands of Kiwis whose lives are impacted by this disease every single day.

Please make a donation to support my challenge and help save Kiwi hearts.

Together, we can win the race against heart disease.

Thank you!
