Get This! A “Wear Purple” Day for Paddy’s Favourite Colour in Donegal

Published June 6, 2012 | By Adrian

Anyone who knew Paddy will know that Purple was his favourite colour. Well, how great is this…..I got a message from the wonderful Lorraine Boyle last night and it simply said the following:

The children of Scoil Mhuire Belcruit, Donegal, my kids national school, are holding a ‘Wear Purple’ day in aid of RunForPaddy.com on June 15th 2012.

I will get the teacher to take a photo and email to you. All children will donate 2 euro each

Thanks Lorraine and thanks to everyone at Scoil Mhuire Belcruit. This is so appreciated and is exactly what RunForPaddy.com is all about.

Thanks to everyone who supported me along the sidelines and the roads during my races. Thanks to everyone who ran some races with me. Thanks to everyone who did their own fundraising events and campaigns for RunForPaddy.com Thanks to Regina for listening to my moaning of aches and pains and for being the greatest person that’s ever lived. Thanks to Ann for supporting me from the moment I ran the idea past her. And thanks to the man behind it all, my inspiration for every mile and my true friend, Paddy. We love you man.

Want To Get Involved?

Some people have said that they might run (or walk) the 1st race with me and maybe even the second one too... some even said they'd do more then 2 races, but that was on a night out! You can register for the races by clicking here. Let me know if you sign up and we'll meet up on the race day.

Not a runner or a walker? No hassle! If you have any other ideas on how you can help get in touch today... we need all the help we can get to make this big for Paddy!
