Rory Best begins huge endurance challenge to raise money for charity
Former Irish rugby captain Rory Best said he “feels great” as he embarked on a 330km 10-day journey across the country in a bid to raise two million euro for child cancer services.
“I have loads of energy,” he said, as he set off from the Aviva Stadium alongside 14-year-old Naomi Howlin who was diagnosed with cancer last year.
They were cheered on by gathered crowds in the Dublin sunshine.
The final destination on Thursday May 25 is the site where the Cancer Fund For Children hopes to develop a new therapeutic short-break centre “Daisy Lodge” in Cong, Co Mayo.
