Athletic Kate is venturing over to the United States at the end of the month to run the marathon she's been waiting two years to run.

"Visiting New York has been a childhood dream for me and at the top of my bucket list. Another dream was to run the New York City Marathon in 2012 so I packed up my gear and headed over to the USA for a month's holiday with my family and lived out my dreams," she said.

Kate proved it wasn't too easy to live out dreams, as the marathon was cancelled that year.

"I made it to New York, picked up my race day bib number and a few other things I needed from the Marathon Expo and it wasn't long after that I was told the marathon was cancelled due to Hurricane Sandy.

"The organisers didn't think with so much devastation the marathon should go ahead.

"I was devastated myself and cried but I understood totally and vowed to come back and finish the job."

Kate has decided this year is her year to run the marathon.

"This year is my year to live the final part of the dream, but I'm not only doing for myself, I'm running to raise funds for The Narromine Cancer Support Group," she said.

To Kate, this is the perfect cause to fundraise for as they have helped out her family in the past.

"They are a wonderful group who helped us out at one time in our lives when we needed it and now I would like to repay some of their kindness by running this marathon in support of this wonderful charity in our little town," she said.

The New York City Marathon is the largest marathon in the world with more than 50,000 finishers in 2013.

Kate is calling on Narromine residents to sponsor her 42.2km run through one of the world's most famous cities.

"If you would like to sponsor me you can make an online donation (by clicking here)  or money can be dropped into the Narromine newsagents in an envelope with your name on it so I can add your name to the donations webpage or there is a money tin you can just pop money into," she said.

"All the donations go straight to the Narromine Cancer Support Group."

Kate is excited to finally run the race she's been preparing for for more than two years.

"So after two long years waiting it's now just under two weeks away and on November 2 I'll be running my dream through the five boroughs of New York City," she said. "I can't wait! Thank you for your support!"
