Story

In September 2009 I will take part in an ultra marathon cycle challenge – Race Around Ireland - which will test endurance, strength and mental toughness.  I am determined to finish the toughest, and most gruelling cycling event ever to be held in Ireland. 

 

The Race Around Ireland is a time trial consisting of 1350 miles of open roads, non stop and over some of ’s largest mountains taking in magnificent scenery and passing some of Ireland's most famous landmarks.  With Elite riders finishing in four days and the event cut off point at 120 hours this poised to be the toughest challenge intoday.  The event will circumnavigate the costal line of anti - clockways starting in Navan Co Meath on Tue 15th Sept and finishing back in Navan at some point o the Sunday for the top riders.

 I have selected to support the NI Cancer Fund for Children and would be grateful for any donations made towards this fantastic charity, who provide practical, emotional and social support to children diagnosed with cancer and their families. 


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children gets your money faster and, if you’re a taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
