I have completed two Marathons previously, Gold Coast and Sydney. In 2011, I was entered to run in the Bronx 1/2 Marathon which was cancelled due to Hurricane Irene.I planned to return in 2012 to conquer the full NYC Marathon but glad I didn't as Hurricane Sandy cancelled that event!So let's hope for a Hurricane free event this year and some sun would even be nice, and looking forward to getting on the start line.My main driving motivation for this event is that both my mother and father have been treated for bowel related cancers (Gasto - Intestinal and Colon). Both had early treatment and this was immensely beneficial.My father who lives in New Jersey has unfortunately recently had a secondary diagnosis. Treatment for him continues and early signs are positive. I plan to visit him and his wife in New Jersey and complete the NYC Marathon at that time.To my friends, family and anyone else that reads this, I want to emphasise The Jodi Lee Foundation's message that early detection of bowel cancer is vital.My friends, we are rapidly approaching an age that means we should be being tested more often. It's easy to do and I want to encourage this process, so please Take The Test.My aim is to promote awareness and if you can flick a few dollars into the mix to help The Jodi Lee Foundation do their job that would be awesome - and just for kicks you get to see and hear about me running the New York Marathon in a black tutu!!! What's not to love?
