originally signed up to the marathon as a challenge to myself, to give me focus on a goal to maintain fitness and to do something i never thought i would. Since signing up good friends of mine lost their son, Patrick, to mental health issues, upon hearing the news i decided to dedicate this marathon effort to Patrick and his family and to raise some money into a charity doing so much to help such an important cause close to my heart. This one is for you Patrick 🙏🏻
