Running for History, Hope and Community Ibrox Stadium to Rugby Park – 22 Miles for Two Incredible Charities
16550
On Sunday 23rd May 2027, I’ll be taking on a very special challenge — running the 22 miles from Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow to Rugby Park, home of Kilmarnock Football Club.
The run marks the 30th anniversary of one of the greatest days in Kilmarnock’s history — our unforgettable Scottish Cup victory in 1997, a match I was proud to play in and a moment that will live forever in the hearts of Killie supporters.
Thirty years on, I want to celebrate that incredible achievement in a way that can also make a real difference to people’s lives.
I’ll be raising funds for two charities that mean a great deal to me:
Reverse Rett
Reverse Rett supports families affected by Rett syndrome and helps fund vital research into treatments and ultimately a cure for this devastating neurological condition. My daughter Dionne lives with Rett syndrome, so this charity is very close to my heart. Rett syndrome affects the ability to speak, walk, communicate and live independently, and every penny raised helps bring hope to families like ours.
The Killie Community
The Killie Community is Kilmarnock Football Club’s partner charity and plays a huge role in supporting people across Ayrshire through health, wellbeing, inclusion and community programmes. Their work reaches people of all ages and backgrounds, using the power of football to improve lives every single day.
This run is about football memories, but it’s also about community, togetherness and giving something back.
I’d love for supporters, friends, runners and anyone connected to Kilmarnock Football Club to join me for all or part of the journey from Ibrox to Rugby Park as we celebrate 30 years since that historic Scottish Cup triumph.
Whether you run, walk, donate or simply support along the route, your encouragement and generosity will help raise vital funds for two truly worthwhile causes.
Thank you for your support — and here’s to celebrating one of the proudest moments in Killie history while helping create hope for others.
