From Triona O'Sullivan... "Unfortunately on 28th Of May 20225, I lost my uncle John Hayes unexpectedly and in his memory I want run in his honour. In total, John had run 112 times at parkrun and volunteered on 28 occasions. He mostly ran at Macroom but he also visited some other local parkruns including Ballincollig, Bere Island, Clonakilty, Glen River and also Killarney and Tralee. He was involved in Cork BHAA and did many races."
This charity 5k will be held at Valley Rovers GAA grounds in Innishannon which is next to the N71 road and the Bandon River.
The course is on the 800m long 'Bleach Walk' which is named in memory of the linen bleaching industry which used to operate here in the 18th century.
The run is untimed and the 5k course will be approximately six laps.
