Reminder...Great Island 10 mile coming up on Sun 21st of April

Just a reminder that the Great Island 10 mile road race is coming on Sunday, the 21st of April. I got an e-mail from organisers yesterday just to say that they hope to have former Olympian Sonia O'Sullivan taking part this year as well.

For those who might find 10 miles a bit too much, there is a much shorter 5k walk/fun run option. Details from the organisers....A 5km walk / run will take place on the same day for those less inclined to run 10miles but want to be a part of the day. Leaving from the Community Centre @ 10.00am (30 mins before the main event) it will finish at the G.P.O. where walkers can await the arrival of the runners to disco music and help spur them on! There is no entry fee for the 5km walk / run but entrants would be expected to take a Sponsor Card. Sponsor Cards are available from Sonya Murphy on 087 7904895 or email sonyaomurphy@gmail.com

More info about the main race in this earlier post with links on how to enter, course previews, etc.

Remember, all proceeds from this race go towards the Irish Cancer Society.
