Clonakilty Marathon for Spinal Injuries Ireland

On Saturday the 25th of November 2023 myself and a friend are running the full Clonakilty Waterfront Marathon distance, while three other friends are running the Clonakilty half marathon distance.

We are raising money in aid of Spinal Injuries Ireland which is Ireland's only dedicated support service for people living with a spinal cord injury.

Spinal Injuries Ireland work with people from the point of injury, through each stage of recovery and rehabilitation for as long as is necessary. On average, 3 people per week sustain a spinal cord injury in Ireland.

My own personal interests in motocross and sports like mountain biking as well as my friends interests in motorbikes has led to the exposure of witnessing the effects spinal cord injuries have on people lives. These injuries often happen due to freak accidents leaving the affected person with a completely new set of challenges with no prior warning.

All funds raised will go directly to Spinal Injuries Ireland.

Many thanks for your support.
