A Newry man is running from Belfast to Dublin in aid of a young boy with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Marty Fox will start the 24-hour challenge on Friday, April 21, when he plans to run 173km from the Europa Hotel to St James's Gate in Dublin to raise funds for Alfie Pentony, a 10-year-old going through Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy treatment.
Alfie was diagnosed with the life-limiting disease when he was four years old and since then his parents, Colleen and Jamie, have been doing all that they can in order to ensure that he is able to get the treatment and support he deserves.
