saw them form a
team and run two miles in each of the 26 counties in just 26 hours in aid of the Mercy Hospital Foun- dation. The Back 2 Back Challenge, which was led by Tralee woman, Bren- da Doody, raised a total of €9,272, which was of- ficially presented to the Mercy Hospital Founda- tion on the 25 November. Back 2 Back was an
action-packed challenge that saw participants kick off their journey outside The Mercy University Hospital at 8am on the 26 September, run their first two miles in Kerry, travel the length and breadth of Ireland covering 52 miles on foot, and finish in Cork exactly 26 hours later. Funds raised by this
innovative endurance
challenge will go towards a new Fluoroscopy X-ray Unit

Centre for Gastroenterol- ogy at the Mercy Univer- sity Hospital, which will assist doctors in staging and treating patients with tumours in the oesopha- gus, stomach, bowel, pan- creas and liver. In 2015, Brenda un-

about helping the Mercy as I am. Over the 26 hours we formed a strong bond, got a buzz as we arrived in each new county, ran in darkness, ran in light, and formed friendships that will last much longer than those 26 hours. I would like to thank those that joined me, as well as Paddy Wagon Tours, who kindly sponsored the bus and two drivers Freddie and Eduardo to bring us safely on our journey.” Brenda was joined on Back 2 Back by Deirdre Finn, the Mercy Hospital Foundation; Geraldine O’Sullivan from Bantry; Aidan Quirke and Gear- oid Buckley from Bandon; Moya Muldowney from Cobh; Veronica Fitzger- ald from Togher; Noreen Cashman from Midle- ton; Joan Kennedy from Cashel; Liz Browne from

the
Mercy Hospital Founda- tion said “Our mission is to inspire people support
to

to take
advancements of
patients at The Mercy University Hospital, the People’s Hospital. It’s not often we get
a life-saving action… an action that will impact and directly improve your life or the life of another, but that is what our Back 2 Back team did. Funds raised by this dedicated team will go towards The Mercy Cancer Appeal which will help Mercy Hospital patients facing cancer.”
