After running the women’s mini-marathon in under an hour in June, Katie took on the challenge of running the entire SSE Airtricity Dublin Race Series, including the SSE Airtricity Dublin Marathon, in aid of the proposed Dr John Kirker Brain Disease Centre at St. James’s Hospital, Dublin.

A plan was formed that Katie run with Dr Colin Doherty, her consultant neurologist and the spearhead of the fundraising campaign itself!

Together, they make a great team with their shared interests. They both encouraged one another and swapped tips throughout the half marathon. And when Katie fell, Dr Doherty was able to stay with her until she was ready to get up again!
