Anthony Pender fundraising for Alzheimer Society of Ireland
I've just turned 40 - and I need your help! As part of my mid-life crisis, I've decided to run four marathons. One for each decade. I'm doing this to raise a bit of cash for the Alzheimer's Society (in Ireland & the UK). Alzheimer's has had a devastating effect on my family and the families of the people around me. Every cent and penny raised will help fund support for those affected. Any and all donations are welcome. My four marathons: - Manchester City Marathon (19 April) - Belfast Marathon (3 May) - Kilkenny Marathon (12 Sept) - Dublin City Marathon (25 October)
