WE'RE WALKING A HALF MARATHON AFTER BREAST CANCER

4 Fantastic Friends

4 Survivors of Breast Cancer

4 Lucky Ladies

Creina, Nicki, Lucy and Dee – 4 strong women who have been training since June 2019 to walk the Queenstown Half Marathon on 16 November – in 3 weeks.

We have been supported by the Expinkt Gym of the Otago University (a gym for breast cancer patients) through treatment and recovery and now we want to give back.

Since March last year, the 4 of us have been diagnosed, underwent surgery and radiation and most of us also went through chemotherapy treatment. The effects physically and emotionally have taken their toll. Starting the Expinkt Gym has been a lifeline for us all. We’ve met each other and regained most of our energy and fitness. We want to thank Lynnette Jones and the personal trainers for their compassion, understanding and patience.

The funds raised are to support and help fund this incredible gym, the only one of its kind in the world.

Funds will be donated to the University of Otago Foundation Trust (CC20440) which is an approved donee organisation in New Zealand. The Trust receives and administers donations, bequests, and sponsorship monies for University and academic priorities, including EXPINKT.

Thanks for your support.

Creina, Nicki, Lucy and Dee xx
