As I have already noted in this blog (see Giving Back), on 18 November 2010, 12 year old Blenheim girl, Jaqueline Wyatt, had her pelvis crushed by a large truck while she was riding her bike to school. She was fighting for her life for several days and now she is on the long, slow, painful road to recovery.
I have a huge amount of empathy for Jacqueline and her family so I have set up a page for you to sponsor me on race day. All of the money will go directly to the Jacqueline Wyatt Recovery Appeal Trust (which is headed by Jacqueline's School principal).
You can choose to donate an amount regardless of my result or I have a couple of options where you can incentivise me to go as far as possible in the race (a per kilometre sponsorship) or finish fast (sponsorship per minute faster than my (secret) target of 14 hours).
If you want to help, please go to the page that I have set up and complete the short sponsorship form or email me directly and I will tell you how you can desposit money into the Trust's account: richard.mitchell@xtra.co.nz.
