Hi all! My name is Jake Doran (aka Dora[n] The Explorer) and on the 28th of October I will running the Dublin Marathon for The Wedding Wishing Well Foundation, alongside my dad John and my sister's fiancé Adam. Any help, be that sponsorship or simply spreading the word, would be greatly appreciated. Please read on for more information about the event and the impact your support can have.

The Wedding Wishing Well Foundation is a local Exeter based charity that organises and funds weddings for terminally ill people. They believe that few things in life can be more important or rewarding, than giving such a person a chance to have their dream wedding day, with all the excitement, love and happiness that brings. And I agree.

Having only started running with the Couch to 5k before Christmas, I'm still a beginner running and this will be my first marathon. I recently completed the Simply Health Bristol 10k and have further events planned in the run up to the marathon.

If you would like to keep up to date with my training or see related photos/posts you can do so over on my blog: www.dorantheexplorer.com

For more information regarding The Wedding Wishing Well Foundation, you can check out their profile on JustGiving, or visit their site at: www.weddingwishingwell.org.uk

Thank you for your interest and support,

Jake Doran - Dora[n] The Explorer
