Thanks yet again to Richard Donovan for my support car!
Thanks yet again to the North Pole Marathon and my great friend Richard Donovan for ongoing support of the run. Richard has very generously sponsored the hire of the support car which is driven by Siobhan and our expenses for the Irish lap.
Richard’s North Pole Marathon website HERE is known as the ‘world’s coolest marathon’. He also organises the Antarctic Ice Marathon & 100k www.icemarathon.com at the other end of the planet, which was Lonely Planet’s top marathon pick for adventure travel in 2014. Richard’s Volcano Marathon HERE in the Atacama Desert is one of the highest marathons in the world and was recently listed by British Airways as the second most scenic marathon in the world, one place behind the North Pole Marathon!
Richard it was great seeing you at the Dublin port last Saturday. I look forward to running into and out of Galway with you in about nine days and a rest day, my first since London three weeks ago.

Richard has certainly made your lap of Ireland much easier for you with his generous sponsorship and your great support driver Siobhan. All you have to do is run those final kms Tony. Take care Ann

On my way to Malin Head now. Malin Head to Mizen Head will be part of the run, so a bit of back tracking involved. Good article in today’s Irish independent page 16, thanks to Frank Greally.
