When I took up running in Fit4Life in my local athletic club in 2014 I never in my wildest dreams thought I would run a marathon, but the hard months of training are nearly done, and I will be running 26.2 miles in the Dublin City Marathon on October 30th alongside my Lusk A.C. team mates.

When I heard about the work of Building Schools For Africa in helping children aspire to a brighter future through access to good education I knew that I wanted to help and as this marathon is my first and most likely last what better way to do it?
