Just want to thank everyone for their support over the last number of weeks. I completed the run on Thursday last and was blown away by the support I have received at the finish line from my fellow colleagues and pupils in Pobalscoil Chorca Dhuibhne. It was a special and emotional moment and one I will remember for a long time. Míle maith agaibh as an bhfáilte speisialta. I have lodged the offline donations this orning totally €2700 in cash and €1100 in cheques so far. I will leave this online page active for another few days in case there are a few more donations to be made. Once again thanks for all the support over the last number of weeks and I hope we did you proud Mom 
So the big day is almost here. Thanks for all the support thus far, over €15,000 now raised for both charities!
Plan is to leave Tralee at 4a.m tomorrow morning and hopefully reach Dingle around 9a.m
Míle buíochas daoibh ar fad as an tacaíocht atá sibh tar éis a thabhairt dom go dtí seo! 
Gura míle maith agaibh as an tacaíocht go dtí seo. Dhá lá fágtha go dtí an lá ciniúna.
t-2 days left to the day of reckoning. Just want to thank everyone for their support. It has been fantastic. There have been a number of offline donations, totalling €2000 so that brings the total right up to close on €13,000 which will be evenly distributed between both charities. Looking forward to taking on the challenge not only in memory of my other, Anne but also in memory of all those who have lost loved ones to cancer down through the years 
Just a little note on where all this money goes
Kerry Hospice Foundation
So last year we spent about €950, 000. This was mainly paying off the final part of our agreement with the HSE, in relation to running the inpatient unit.
This year it will probably be closer to €300,000, which will be our baseline for the next few years. Bear in mind that we are now planning for a 5 bed extension of the unit, which will cost millions (as yet early stages, so no firm cost). To date we have fully paid for both the inpatient and outpatient units, at a cost of over €12 million. All of this was from voluntary fundraising.
Kerry Cancer Support Group
The service costs €5,500 approx per week to run.
Our new bus is fantastic, absolutely state of the art and will make the journey so much easier and is wheelchair but all this comes at a cost. €230,000.
As you know we receive no statuary funding although we did get a partial grant for the bus but had to raise 75%of it. We are completely reliant on donations to run the service.
We have transported over 75% of those diagnosed in the region to 8 different centers since our foundation in 2010. 
Just a little update on where the funding is going

Thanks to everyone for their support so far. There has been over €6000 raised to date for these 2 extremely worthy causes. Completed my longest run to date yesterday clocking over 31km. The training is going according to plan so far so looking forward now to the 25th and taking on the challenge.
A nice article from the Kerryman here from yesterday;
