Earlier this year I got tested to see if I could  donate my kidney to my cousin John Paul Jones who has been getting dialysis treatment 3 times a week for over 15 yrs via the Irish Kidney Association. Unfortunately we were not a match. 

In 2014 I ran a marathon, I said afterwards never ever again as the discipline, focus, endurance involved was too much. However I really wanted my kidney to be a match for JP, was disappointed our tissues did not suit so on that note I decided I'd train & endure another marathon and raise funds for the IKA as running a marathon is nothing compared to what JP has gone through for the last 15 years.
