Oisín's 100km run in memory of my mam Louise Casey

The Challenge:

Starting on the 3rd of June I plan to run 4km everyday in the month until I run at least 100km. My school, Scoil Réalt na Mara, have agreed to support my fundraising event hosting its own "Purple Run" in the school on 3rd June. If all goes according to plan, I will complete the challenge with all my classmates before we finish up for our Summer holidays.

Why:

I'm doing this challenge in memory of my mam Louise to raise much needed funds for St. Francis Hospice. She was the best mam ever. I am so so lucky. Unfortunately Mam was diagnosed with stomach cancer over 2 years ago. This was a real bombshell to all our family. In spite of having to go through numerous bouts of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, an 8 hour operation and months to recover Mam never let it get her down. She is the strongest person I know (even stronger than dad with all his muscles). No matter how tough things got she was always in a good mood. I can't remember her complaining once. She always put everyone else before herself especially Odhrán, Erin and me. She is simply the best ever.
I've chosen to fundraise for St. Francis Hospice because Mam was lucky to spend her last few days in the Hospice in Raheny. All the staff in the Hospice were so kind and caring to Mam. They let my dad and auntie spend so much time with Mam when she was really sick. I would like to do something in return to help the Hospice out. All funds raised here will go directly to this great cause.
