Greed is good....not

Remember Mr Gordon Gekko who once said that 'greed is good'?

Well your greed won't be good for our movie fundraiser night next month when Ben and I will be running our last race for this year, participating in the 1/2 marathon of the Sydney Running Festival.

To finish off our running season, we have organised another movie fundraiser event at the Ritz in Randwick on Friday, 24 September, staring at 7.30 pm. We would like to take that occasion and say thank you for all the support you gave us during the year. Please join us for a drink, find out how we training, and run together and watch a great movie.

Wall Street 2 - Money Never Sleeps. An Oliver Stone movie with Carey Mulligan, Michael Douglas, Charlie Sheen, Susan Sarandon and more. Join us at the Ritz Cinema Bar from 7.30 pm onwards for a chat and drinks. The movie starts at 9.15 pm. http://www.ritzcinema.com.au/

Please pre-purchase your tickets - the movie is going to be popular and seats may be limited for our night. Tickets are $30* per person and include entrance to the movie, a pre-movie drink at the Ritz Bar, and 5 raffle tickets.

Ben and I hope to see as many of you and your friends on the night.

Remember, 'greed may be good' for Mr Gekko, but certainly not for our movie night next month. Your money will never sleep in the hands of two great charities (The Fred Hollows Foundation http://www.hollows.org.au/ and The Achilles Running Club http://www.achilles-sydney.org.au/). It will be put to good use, helping needlessly blind people and assisting those in need.

Thanks for your support!

Ben and Markus
