Megan Zalzal fundraising for Irish Red Cross with Mega Run Club in Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2026

This October, I’ll be taking on the Dublin Marathon in support of the Irish Red Cross. Running has become a huge part of my life. Through founding Mega Run Club in Dublin, I’ve seen firsthand how running can bring people together, build friendships, and create a genuine sense of community. What started as a small Sunday morning run has grown into a supportive group of people who encourage each other every week, and I’m excited to be lining up on marathon day alongside some of them. As a medical student, I also have a deep appreciation for the vital work the Irish Red Cross does, providing humanitarian support to people facing emergencies and crises both in Ireland and around the world.   If you’re able to contribute, any donation, big or small, will help support the incredible work of the Irish Red Cross and keep me moving through all 42.2 kilometres. Thank you so much for your support. ❤️🏃‍♂️
