A Mt Albert woman has pledged to run one half marathon a month this year to pay tribute to her late mum and to back breast cancer.

Thirty-eight-year-old Nadine France is tackling the daunting challenge to commemorate mum Laural who died in 2019 after a 10-year battle with breast cancer.

The runner of 15 years also wants to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ to boost funds for research and raise awareness of the disease.

“Mum would be absolutely shocked by this challenge, but I think she’d also be proud because she was someone who gave a lot and cared about women prioritising their health,” France said.

She said the gruelling runs would be part of her healing process and a way to channel her grief into doing something positive.

"When mum was in her final days people were so kind so it's important for me to give back in some way."

France tackled the eighth Continent Half Marathon at Auckland Domain earlier this month.

With 11 races to go, she said she is looking forward to moving out of her comfort zone and at the same time seeing more of the country.

Police investigating the aggravated robbery of the Vincent Mini Mart in Auckland's CBD would like to speak to this man.

They would also like to talk to the two customers who were in the store about 2.30 pm on Saturday.

At that time, a man entered the store and stood behind a shelving unit while the sole staff member served two customers.

When the customers left, the man allegedly pointed a firearm at the staff member and demanded money.

He left the shop with an undisclosed sum, turned right onto Vincent St and walked towards Hopetoun Bridge.

Phone police on 105 and quote file number 210123/0838 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
