Ronan Scully’s North Pole Marathon

Would you like to support Ronan Scully’s North Pole Marathon Challenge for Charity?  Galway Hospice is one of the beneficiaries from this event.  You can support us by requesting a Sponsorship Card from Galway Hospice and seeking sponsorship in support of Ronan’s Marathon run at the North Pole, where temperatures can drop to -40C!

After the glare of the TV cameras from his role as a leader on ‘Operation Transformation’, Ronan Scully’s attention now turns to another big challenge, The North Pole Marathon.  Running a marathon is a tough thing to do as many people with agree with but throw in the extreme conditons at The North Pole and you start painting a whole new picture of the challenge that lies ahead.

“This is without doubt one the hardest things I have ever taken on. It is a 26.2 mile run in temperatures that can drop to -40c at the geographic North Pole”, explains Ronan “but the madness that it presents can be justified by the great opportunites in raising money for 6 deserving charities”.

Sponsorship cards can be obtained by telephoning Galway Hospice at 091-770868.  Thank you for supporting Ronan in this great challenge.
