Thought your 30 minute drive back to your old parish was a long trek?
Alan Cuddihy laughs in your face.
His club Ballyhale Shamrocks take on Kilmallock of Limerick tomorrow in the AIB All-Ireland club hurling final, and despite living and working in London, Cuddihy has been returning every fortnight for training and matches, as his side have marched through county, province and now into the All-Ireland decider.
Cuddihy has found himself on 50 flights this season, and has driven 9,500 miles, all in the name of hurling.
Seeing this commitment just makes you love sport.
