Young runner’s 60km challenge<br />
• From page 1<br />
Harri was only 3 when he first<br />
wanted to join his dad when he went<br />
for a run.<br />
“I said no, it was probably not for<br />
him,” said Mr Brown.<br />
“He was exceptionally upset when I<br />
said no, so we took it slowly and when<br />
he got tired I continued to run with<br />
him on my shoulders.”<br />
From then on it seemed like they<br />
could never put away his running<br />
shoes.<br />
Harri’s heart defect meant that<br />
at birth he had severe left ventricle<br />
dysfunction – ejecting between seven<br />
to 12 per cent of its volume each<br />
heartbeat.<br />
Mr Brown said a normal baby’s<br />
heart ejects 55 per cent.<br />
“He was given a 50 per cent chance<br />
to live when he was born and he had<br />
open-heart surgery 27 hours after<br />
birth.<br />
“After surgery at Starship Hospital,<br />
he now has a normally functioning<br />
ventricle.”<br />
Mrs Brown was appreciative of the<br />
“fantastic” support they received from<br />
Heart Kids Canterbury and meeting<br />
other families going through a similar<br />
journey.<br />
“It’s important to meet people going<br />
through the same thing, it makes a<br />
big difference,” she said.<br />
