CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE PARTICIPANTS WHO TOOK PART IN THE FLORA WOMEN'S MINI MARATHON.

Over 100 ladies participated in the 2008 race on behalf of the 3Ts. Sponsorship money is still rolling in but we are on track to exceed the sums raised in previous years.

OUR SINCERE THANKS TO ALL WHO GAVE UP THEIR TIME TO PARTICIPATE IN AID OF THE 3TS AND TO THEIR FAMILIES AND TO ALL SPONSORS.

The Flora Women’s Mini-Marathon took place on Monday, 2nd June, 2008 along a route of 10k (6.2 miles) through South Dublin. Since it began in 1983 over 450,000 women have entered and have collected over €66m making it the biggest charity event in Ireland. Women (and men!!) from all over Ireland participated in aid of the 3Ts for the first time in 2004, raising over €4,000 to help Turn the Tide of Suicide. We have trebled this figure in recent years.

All ages, representing every county and all walks of life take part. All participants have to do is get fit enough to walk, jog or run the 10k. Each individual sets her own target and every finisher is a winner, receiving a commemorative medal and ribbon to mark the achievement.
