Dear Friends

I will be running the 2011 New York City Marathon to raise funds for Alzheimer research - a cause that is close to my heart. Every penny/cent helps! Not just for Alzheimer research, but also for extra motivation to get me to the finish line - because those 42km still seem a very long way to go!

Thank you very much for any contribution made! US taxpayers can visit my page on Crowdrise, sot their contributpion is tax deductible in the US. http://www.crowdrise.com/alzheimerresearch/fundraiser/FlorisvanHees

On the day of the race (Sunday, 6 November 2011) you will be able to follow me on the website of the ING New York Marathon.
