Notice: Elaine Lehane Memorial Virtual Run - Sat 5th Sept 2020


The Elaine Lehane Memorial 5k normally takes place in Doneraile Park at the start of September every year. This year with the COVID-19 restrictions, it had to be cancelled.

They are asking runners and walkers to consider doing their own virtual run instead next Saturday and make a donation to Marymount Hospice.

From the organisers... Saturday next (5th of September) is the date that we were due to hold the 4th Elaine Lehane Memorial Run in aid of Marymount Hospice and in memory of a wonderful lady.

This year we will need to do something a little different to raise well needed funds for the team in Marymount.  We would love if familes/households could get out over the weekend and do their own 5k, run, walk or roll and perhaps post some of your pictures on this Facebook page for prosperity.

In addition there will be a small group of us cycling from Mallow to Marymount (about 45k) (and maybe back) on Sunday  - hopefully the weather will hold up.

It would be really appreciated if you make a donation directly to Marymount on the following link  . . . https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/11390189_in-memory-of-elaine-lehane.html

 To date we have raised over €18,000 for Marymount and hoping to add another €2,000 to get us over the €20,000 mark. This would be an amazing achievement.
