Miriam O’Callaghan will launch the 5 Alive event on Thursday 29th March at 3pm in Oldbridge House, Drogheda, Co. Louth.
Garda James Carty who is stationed in Claremorris Garda Station is planning to run five marathons in five days in aid of the Tania McCabe Foundation. His journey will start on the 3rd July in Claremorris, Co. Mayo and finish on the 7th July in Drogheda, Co. Louth.
Oldbridge House is located on the Slane Road about two miles outside of Drogheda.
The event is hoped to involve members of An Garda Síochána from all Garda stations along the route. James would also like to invite individuals and clubs to join him along the way and try and raise money in each of the various towns.
