Sarah O Toole fundraising for Irish Heart Foundation in Ratoath AC Half Marathon 2026
The Irish Heart Foundation is very close to my heart. My mam benefited greatly from their support for comfort and information about her condition, so I am running this half marathon in her memory for this important charity. Please donate what you can to this important cause. Follow me on strava if you would like to see training updates 😊
About Irish Heart Foundation
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in both men and women. The tragic reality is – around 16 people will have a heart attack today. Just today, and every other day. And on each of those days, 20 others will have a stroke. These are extraordinary and stark facts. But the equally remarkable – and hopeful – reality is: 80% of early heart disease and stroke cases are preventable. That’s why the Irish Heart Foundation has been here for 60 years. Here to lead the charge to protect the cardiovascular health of everyone in Ireland. Here, to eliminate preventable death or disability. Here to collaborate. Here, not just as one of Ireland’s most trusted and effective charities, but to build a lifesaving movement across the country. We are here regardless of age, background or means. Here for every community, every school, and every workplace. Here for every heartbeat.
