Saturday 7th Mar
Saturday greetings,

This morning I needed a change of scenery.  So Liverpool city centre became was my running route for 8.5km.

I think it can be good to not get too familiar with the running routes you take as complacency can set in.

I have been to Phoenix Park many times, but I obviously won't know the race day course that well. That's part of the challenge.

Thank you to everyone who has sponsored. The generosity has been fantastic and it all goes to a brilliant cause.

For those who haven't donated yet, any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Still on the run

Sunday 1st Mar

Between weights, running and yoga it has been a good weekend of workouts.

I am up to 8km now, which I am happy with, so I think I will be ready for the 12th April. I also like to keep track of it, whether it is a short video, picture, whiteboard message, it all helps with the motivation.

 I have learned as I have got older that it is important to pay it forward, which is why I like to do at least one fundraising event a year. This year's cause is more significant than ever for me.

 Thank you again for any donations you can give, it is all going to a fantastic cause and is greatly appreciated.


Thanks for taking the time to visit this page.

Friday 27th Feb
I'll be raising money for the Marie Keating Foundation, which does incredible work to help many people who have to deal with such a cruel and horrible disease.

The training for the 10k has been going really well and between running and weights workouts, I'm confident I'll be ready for the 12th April.

I'm also looking forward to completing this course as it'll be the first time I'll have run around the Phoenix Park.

Thank for you for any donations, it's all greatly appreciated.
