My name is Justin McGrath and I'm aiming to run the Clonakilty Marathon on 27th November. This is my first marathon and I'm not sure if I'll ever do another one so will be running in memory of my little girl Isla and hoping to raise some money for Sands and another charity close to my heart.

My first charity Sands were there for us when we lost our little lady Isla at 37 weeks in 2019. When your is heart is broken with loss so close to the end of pregnancy your in a daze and their help guided us through such an awful time. For that we will be forever grateful.

My second charity is Pretty n Pink NI Breast Cancer Charity. My workmate Steveys mother Ruth was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2018. So im hoping to show my support in whatever way I can. Cancer unfortunately affects so many families in Northern Ireland, Im happy to help towards the great work this Charity does on a daily basis.
