Taking on the challenge, Declan and Niall McNally hope to raise money for Women's Aid, a charity they have supported since their sister was killed in December 2022.
On December 18, 2022, Ms. McNally, 32, was assassinated in her Lurgan residence while she was fifteen weeks pregnant.
In February 2023, Stephen McCullagh, 33, was accused of her murder. In January of this year, McCullagh, of Lisburn's Woodland Gardens, entered a not-guilty plea to the accusation.
Natalie was a fervent supporter of Armagh, and the GAA community has participated in several events held in her honour.

At the 32-minute point of the game, supporters from both counties could be seen standing up at the Armagh stadium to cheer, marking the 32 years of Natalie's life, during a league match between Armagh and Mayo at the Athletic Grounds last February.
Her brothers are currently travelling to Croke Park in Dublin, where the county's senior football team will play Connacht team Galway in an attempt to win an All-Ireland championship for the first time since 2002.
