Goal

My name is Tadhg Daly, I’m 25, and this December I’ll be running 7 marathons in 7 days — from Tara Mór, the Irish bar I work in (located right beside Madison Square Garden in Manhattan) to the Boston Garden, the first spot my dad went to when he arrived in Boston in the 90s.

With my mom being from New York, this run connects both cities back to my parents, who’ve always been my biggest support.

I’m raising money for Solace House USA, an Irish mental health charity in New York that provides free counseling and suicide prevention services. Christmas is meant to be a time of joy, but it can also be one of the loneliest times of year — especially if you’re far from home. Solace House is there for people in those moments, and I want to help them keep doing that work.

I’ve always been lucky to have a strong support network around me. Not everyone has that, and that’s why I’m doing this run.

On Friday, December 19th, I’ll leave New York. By Christmas Day (Thursday, December 25th), I’ll arrive outside what was once called the Boston Garden, and is now known as the TD Garden — 215 miles, 7 marathons in 7 days, back-to-back. If all goes to plan, I’ll be the first Irish person my age (25) to ever take on and document this journey.

Any donation, big or small, will go directly to Solace House and help make sure people know they’re not alone this Christmas. 💚
