For Runners and Walkers, the ING New York City Marathon is recognised as one of the world's greatest marathon experiences!

Over the years, a large number of people from all over Ireland have completed the 26.2mile course through the 5 boroughs of New York as a fundraiser for the fight against heart disease. We ask you now to consider participating in the World's No.1 Marathon – the 2009 ING New York City Marathon on Sunday, November 1st to help raise funds in support of our work in the area of Sudden Cardiac Death and Community/ Public Access Defibrillation. Anyone who has completed the New York City Marathon will tell you that the experience is second to none! Why not take the New York Challenge this year and run or walk for Croí?

For all those who choose to run or walk the New York City Marathon as part of the Croí team, we guarantee a superb and professionally managed tour experience. Once your entry has been secured we will provide training and fundraising support and guidance (guaranteed race entry and travel arrangements are by Sports Travel International). All Croí Team members have the benefit of a Team Physio who is available for the duration of their tour.

For further information on the tour, call Croí on 091-544310, or contact Neil Johnson on 087-2599979 or email neil@croi.ie
