My Marathon Challenge

 

When I decided to enter the 2010 Belfast Marathon I didn’t have to look far for a charity that would benefit from my efforts. My sister Ann was born with Down’s syndrome. Very sadly, Ann passed away in 1987, not long before her 7^th birthday but I still have many happy memories of our time together In later years I learned from my mother how important the DSA had been to her and the support she had received. I took up running in February 2009 and have set myself the personal challenge of completing the Belfast marathon and raising money for Down’s Syndrome Association.

 

I know that we are going through a tough time at the moment but I would be so grateful for any donation no matter how small.  The charity do great work and appreciate peoples support.

 

Thank you all so much
