This 10km charity event takes place in Courtmacsherry in West Cork on Saturday evening at 5:30 pm. This is the 2nd year of this event and there is a slight route change from last year. The start is in Courtmacsherry and the route goes around 3 miles to Timoleague, does 1 loop of the town and then back towards Courtmacsherry and the finish. Last year, they had 2 loops around Timoleague and it caused some confusion!
Here is some information about the run that was supplied to me by the organisers...
Date: Saturday June 27th Starting Time: 5.30pm
Route: Similar route to last year. Courtmacsherry to Timoleague with one lap around Timoleague village before returning back to Courtmacsherry.

In 2008, the field for this event was pretty small with 87 taking part. Perhaps this year, they will break the 100 mark? Considering that there are relatively few races in the west Cork area, this one should appeal to people living in that area.
