Founded in 1980 and now the fourth largest marathon in the world, the Irish Life Dublin Marathon is known for its friendly atmosphere and scenic route.
The race takes participants through the vibrant streets of Dublin, passing iconic landmarks like Phoenix Park and the River Liffey.
With a relatively flat course and enthusiastic local support, it’s a popular event for runners of all abilities. So whether you are looking for a PB or an easier route for your first marathon, this could be the one for you!
Registration fee: £35
Minimum fundraising target: £1,000
Every £60 you raise could pay for a family to stay overnight in one of Young Lives vs Cancer’s Homes from Home, providing free self-catering accommodation near to specialist children’s cancer treatment centres, which are often many miles from a family’s own home. Staying in a Home from Home ensures a family can be close to their child during treatment.
We love our runners, and we want them to have an awesome experience! Some of the benefits of joining our team are:
When a child is diagnosed with cancer it threatens everything, for them and their family.
At a time when they should be busy being children, enjoying their rollercoaster teenage years or finding their feet at uni, life becomes full of fear. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, of overwhelming money worries, mental health stretched to breaking point, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to.
At Young Lives vs Cancer, we get that. We are the charity that helps children and young people and their families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. We’ll face it all together – but we can’t do it without you.
Need support and advice for your training? Well look no further! As a valued member of #TeamYoungLives, we've got you covered.
