This year, I’m taking on the Irish Life Dublin Marathon 2026 - for something much bigger than myself. 26.2 miles will be a huge milestone for me, especially as this will be my very first marathon! I’m coming from a place where long-distance running was never really part of my life - and after major surgery in October 2025, this journey has become even more meaningful. By marathon day, I’ll be one year into recovery, and every step I take will be a reminder of how far I’ve come and what we’re all capable of overcoming. I’m also running in support of a cause close to my heart. I’ve seen friends and family impacted by Alzheimer’s, and I couldn’t feel more honoured to represent this charity and help raise awareness and support. This isn’t just about crossing a finish line - it’s about showing up, pushing through, and turning something deeply personal into something that can make a difference for others. Your support - whether it’s a donation, a share, or simply cheering me on - means the world. Together, we can turn every mile into something meaningful. Every step counts. Thank you so much for being part of this journey
