James Murphy fundraising for Concern Worldwide

You can donate now, I’m running the Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2026 — for something bigger than myself. 26.2 miles. That’s the distance between comfort and courage, between an ordinary day and a moment that could truly change lives. Every mile I run is a reminder of why I’m doing this — to make a real difference for those who need it most. It’s not just about crossing a finish line; it’s about showing up, pushing through, and turning effort into impact. Your support — whether it’s a donation, a share, or simply cheering me on — means more than words can say. Together, we can take every step a little further. Every mile matters. Every gesture helps. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. As a vital part of my preparations (you can join me (and start your running journey, with me, lots of advice, group support, no previous running experience needed) come along on one or more of my training events which will start in January 2026, which includes (a) couch to 5k, (b) 5k to 10k, (c) 10k to half marathon distance. Together as a team you and I can succeed for two most worthy causes (a) Concern-end poverty and (b) your personal health and well being. Thank you, looking forward to meeting you, and welcoming you to our running/fitness journey ‘together’. (James Murphy)
