This October I will be running the Dublin Marathon & Royal Parks Half!!

My motivation comes from two incredible little boys Luca & Leo, who have both been diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. Luca was diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy around two years ago. In the same week, I learned that my cousin's little boy, Leo, was diagnosed with Becker's muscular dystrophy, a less severe but still life altering condition.

Before their diagnoses, I knew very little about these rare and life-limiting diseases. Now, my mission is to raise awareness and funds to support research and treatment.

I am running for Luca, Leo, and all the other children and families facing these diagnoses. There is currently no cure, but with your support, we can enhance available treatments and move closer to finding one!

So please donate to an incredible cause, and in return I will run 39 miles in the space of 2 weeks! Anything raised will also be matched by my amazing company Rabobank so you're doubling your donation!!

Thanks so much for your support!
