Fundraiser Spotlight

Arron Murphy – Running with AsIAm

Arron is running the 2026 Irish Life Dublin Marathon with AsIAm, Ireland's Autism Charity. Arron's first-born son was diagnosed with Autism, which Arron notes, changed their world in the most powerful and special way.

Arron is reminded of the importance of resilience every day by the daily challenges his son faces. In recognition of the strength needed to face these challenges, Arron is taking on the 2026 Irish Life Marathon to raise support and awareness for every person that experiences Autism. He has already raised over €7,500.

Arron says that while training for these events is tough, the challenges his son face remind him that resilience is learned, strength is built, and support makes all the difference.
