"Well, you will never run a marathon." Etty suffers from ongoing Sarcoidosis which is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily involves the lungs. Niamh, her sister, likes to run and is going to run the Cork City Marathon on June 6th to raise funds for those suffering from chronic lung diseases. This blog will be a parallel account of their trials and tribulations in the coming months: the would-be marathoner; the mother-of-three moving home and struggling with serious, ongoing Sarcoidosis.

great stuff! that was a epic post, too! I'd have to say on the basis of your pictures, and you know I mean this in the nicest possible way, your running form is about as elegant as mine!! but you get the job done. Oh and being passed by someone you passed with glee earlier on is simply racing hubris...hare and tortoise!
ReplyDeletefantastically well done - you had great support out there too. Congratulations yet again
