Athletics Leinster Officials fundraising for Bowel Cancer Ireland

On behalf of Athletics Leinster officials, a group of us will be taking part in the Remembrance Run 5k on Sunday 8th in loving memory of Ciara Mageean, to honour her life, celebrate her achievements and remember the inspirational person she was. Ciara was not only an incredible athlete but also an advocate for bowel cancer awareness. We want to remember Ciara and ensure her memory lives on through running and supporting a cause that meant a lot to her. Every donation and every share, will help support Bowel Cancer Ireland in continuing it's vital advocacy, outreach and awareness-raising work. Athletics Leinster will match all donations up to the target of €1000. This means your generosity would go twice as far in supporting this cause. We would be incredibly grateful for your support, both in remembering Ciara and supporting a meaningful charity. Walk or run every step is for Ciara šŸ’™ Ar dheis DĆ© go raibh a hanam

Owner messages:

Today we ran the Remembrance Run and were thinking of Ciara Mageean every step of the way. Such a beautiful day to remember a national hero, and all our loved ones that are no longer with us. €3000 raised and counting! Thank you so much to everyone for your support and generosity. Let's see how much we can raise for such an important cause.
