Half Marathon in aid of Organ Donors Ireland

Earlier this year my brother passed away from a brain injury sustained in a boxing bout in Belfast city. Luckily due to the injury being in the brain stem we as a family were able to donate all 5 of my brothers organs. Thanks to this we as a family got to feel the essence of giving somebody a new life and a second chance to live life to the fullest. After this experience I knew I had to do more to help this amazing cause. So me and a few friends have decided to run a half marathon in my brothers name and all proceeds will go to the Strange Boat Donor Foundation. This foundations helps to further the research in this field but also has created a beautiful park in Salthill, Galway in which anybody can take a few minutes out of their day to have a peaceful walk and see some of the benches dedicated to the amazing people who donated their organs and saved lives. All donations are greatly appreciated and we thank you for all of your help.
