By Alice LockA fast marathon time has benefited a Hawke's Bay family. The Bartles, who have a four-year-old son with a heart condition, were given a market leading home loan rate that matched the winning time of the ASB Auckland Marathon. The family now have a two-year fixed 2.20 per cent home loan interest rate. ASB Executive general manager marketing and communications, Roger Beaumont said there had been much to celebrate at the 2016 ASB Auckland Marathon. "We are thrilled for Oska, but equally pleased that his race time can become a market-leading home loan rate for 12 families," Mr Beaumont said.
