Cork runner Michael Haydon completes his 300th marathon!
Back in June of 2010, I had a post up about Cork runner Michael Haydon and how he had just completed his 100th marathon. That was a time when marathons were far and few between and it took him 11 years to reach the century mark.
Fast forward to the 2018 and Michael has now reached the 300 mark after completing the Cork City marathon!
This year, he ran it in support of the Westgate Foundation, Ballincollig who provide a wide range of important quality services and supports for older people in the community including Day-Care, Sheltered Housing, Meals-on-Wheels, Social, and Active Retired Club, Social Work, Counselling, and Transport.
Michael is shown pictured above wearing the number 300 along with some of the other marathon regulars.
