This October, I’ll be running the Dublin Marathon in memory of my Dad, Brian, and raising money for the Irish Kidney Association. He was a dialysis patient under the care of Dr Catherine Wall and her team, and the Irish Kidney Association played an important part in his life, both through the support they gave him pre and post Kidney transplant and through his own involvement with the Association. So when the opportunity came up to run the Dublin Marathon for the IKA, it felt particularly fitting. I’ll be taking on the 42.2km for Dad, while raising money to help the IKA continue supporting kidney patients and their families across Ireland. I’ve set a target of €3,000 and any donation, big or small, would mean a huge amount. Thanks so much for your support.
