A Waterford man has become the first person ever, to run a lap of Ireland.

Twenty-one-year-old Alan Corcoran has just completed 35 marathons in 35 days.

The 917-mile roundtrip was inspired by his father, former FAI president Milo Corcoran, who suffered a stroke last year.

So far, he has raised €7,000 for the Irish Heart Foundation and he is continuing to accept donations through his website www.35marathonman.ie.
