Cork runner Kevin Donovan plans to run a mile at every GAA pitch in the county! - 5th Apr to 22nd Jun 2019
Back in 2017, Cork runner Kevin Donovan took on the challenge of running a race in each one of 32 Irish counties and raising funds for the Irish Deaf Society (IDS) and Cork Deaf Association (CDA) in the process.
This year, he is going to take on a new challenge and will run a mile at every one of the GAA pitches in the county of Cork!
