This year members of Swords Running Club are taking on the full Irish Life Dublin Race Series, from the Fingal 10K right through to the Dublin Marathon in October. We aim to raise vital funds for St. Francis Hospice

Each race – 10K, 10-mile, half-marathon, and full marathon is a major achievement in itself and many of our members will be tackling them all.

So many of us in the club have had family and friends cared for by St. Francis over the years. Their compassion, dignity and unwavering support at the hardest of times means more than words can say and this is our way of giving back.

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
