So many people are coming up with creative ways to raise money for charities since it has become more difficult for them to fundraise, and now more than ever it's so important to help however we can.

One man who's going the extra mile (or the extra 26.2 miles) is Odhran Murphy and he joined Mairead on the phone today.

One day while Odhran was going for a run around the green in his estate, he started trying to figure out how many laps you would need to do to run a full marathon. One he had the maths done, he had decided to actually do it!

So on Sunday 3rd May, Odhran will be running 129 laps of the green to raise much needed funds for Childline. You can donate to his GoFundMe here.
