Run In the Dark

Mark Pollock fell from a second story window in 2010. He broke his back and the damage to his spinal cord left him paralysed. Cruelly, this was not Mark’s first tragedy. 12 years earlier, he lost his sight.
As the blind adventure athlete lay in hospital, now paralysed and broken, his supporters created Run in the Dark to fuel his ambition to walk again. A spinal cord injured pioneer, he is exploring the frontiers of recovery.

Run in the Dark aims to be the biggest multi-location, mass participation running event in the world. And you can be part of it. Join us on Wednesday the 14th of November 2012!
Run in the Dark is a running event held simultaneously in 6 official locations - Dublin, Cork, Belfast, London, Manchester and New York. You can race, run, or walk either 5 km or 10 km in all locations.
