The energy of Paddy’s Run is simply incredible! We’re just one day away from the race, and I’ve witnessed the way this community has embraced the event—friends, family, and even those who placed their trust in our care and dedication to making this race truly special.

I wish my dear Aunt Eliene were here to see this. I know that many of us will be thinking of our loved ones who lost their battle with cancer, but with every step we take, we run towards something greater—towards hope, towards the future, towards the family that stands beside us, towards our friends and neighbours who share this journey.

Congratulations to each and every one of you for being part of this. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you. May this community of love, selflessness, boundless energy, and good health continue to grow and inspire.
