Man Runs 108 Miles to Raise Money for Neonatal Equipment

Sammy Lupari, from Magherafelt, set off from St James’ Gate at 12 noon yesterday and plans to be “standing in Belfast ” at 12 o’clock on Saturday “or before”.

The Magherafelt man’s efforts support a year of fundraising by Moneymore parents, Mary Angela and Johnny Taylor, for the unit that saved their son Leo following a “traumatic” birth. Sammy’s proud wife, Orla Lupari, told Belfast Live as he started off on his ultra-run: “It’s amazing what he doing and it’s for such a fantastic cause.

“So of course when we saw that Mary Angela was taking on this challenge, Sammy said he would definitely do something.“He was originally in the army and came out in 2020 and I think fitness is massive for his mental health.” “He gets it’s done in the unsociable hours and I suppose it helps him with the likes of running through tonight. He’s very good at surviving on little sleep.
