Brian Maher on Marathon Mission

KCH athlete Brian Maher is making his Marathon debut tomorrow.

Brian is part of  the legendary Dick Hoopers Marathon Mission. This is an elite bunch of athletes who are striving to break the 2hrs 20 mins time for the Marathon distance. Already 4 athletes from the group have dipped under this time with one getting the Olympic A standard.

Brian recently ran 1 hour and 6 minutes for a half marathon and will be hoping to translate this into a 2hrs 20 marathon time

Watch Brian and 14,000 others run the classic distance 26 miles 385 yards tomorrow  morning live on RTE television
