[United Kingdom] Ayrshire man to run seven marathons in a week for hospice
Largs & Millport Weekly News, United Kingdom; by Adam Lyon; 7/8/24
An energetic charity champion is set to run seven marathons in seven days in aid of the Ayrshire Hospice. Kieran McLaughlin will run from his home in Dundonald to the charity's home on Racecourse Road in Ayr and back on the first six days. On the final day, Kieran will start and finish at Racecourse Road to round off his week of fundraising. Kieran is running in memory of his dad, John. Over the last four years, he has raised more than £50,000 for the charity.
Editor's Note: Pair this with the article above about hospices in the UK being "on the brink of financial meltdown." We celebrate Kieran McLaughlin's passion to run in memory of his dad, supporting the Ayrshire Hospice in Scotland [part of the United Kingdom]. May we all be inspired to find something we do well and to creatively use it, supporting our collective hospice vision and mission.
