On May 31st, a group of 14 former classmates from Clongowes Wood College (Class of 2007) will take on the Stockholm Marathon in memory of two of our dear friends, Owen Lochrin and Jack Lidholm, who sadly passed away last year.

We are all in our mid-30s, with varying levels of athleticism (some of us are natural-born runners, others are… let’s just say, enthusiastic amateurs!!). But no matter our pace, we’re all running with the same goal in mind: to honour Owen and Jack, to pay tribute to their families, and to raise money for two incredible causes.

Where Your Support Will Go:

Every cent we raise will be split evenly between:

💙 Cancer Trials Ireland – Facilitating clinical trials for cancer treatments across Ireland, connecting patients, researchers, and healthcare providers to advance cancer care through innovative research.

🔹 www.cancertrials.ie

🐶 Autism Assistance Dogs Ireland – providing life-changing service dogs to children with autism

🔹 www.autismassistancedogsireland.ie

How You Can Help:

Donate – No amount is too big or too small (but let’s be honest, bigger is better 😉).
Share – Spread the word far and wide. The more people who know, the more we can raise!

We miss Owen and Jack dearly, and this is our way of remembering them whilst trying to make a positive impact. And we will do our absolute level best to chase down PBs!

Thank you so much for your support – we’ll see you at the finish line! 🏃‍♂️
