Achieving The Goal (Part 1)
What a feeling to have just received an email saying that I'd received an on-line donation that puts me "over the top" for my fundraising goal. Thanks to my good friend Peter Macaulay a friend and business associate (Medavie Blue Cross) for his generous contribution.
Shortly after that I received notice of an on-line donation from Ken M., a colleague of my sister-in-law Kristy. Thanks Ken for supporting me, even though we've never met in person!
I am now totally stoked for the weekend run knowing that the Canadian Diabetes Association has already received more than $5000 (with more to come I hope) through the generosity of so many great folks.
Never forget, this isn't just about me running a marathon (part 2 of the goal). It's primarily about finding a cure for diabetes, supporting people who already live with the disease and educating people about how they can reduce their risk of being diagnosed.
