Notice: Run a virtual 5k / 10k for breast cancer awareness month - Oct 2021


The Marie Keating Foundation are holding a virtual 5k / 10k run to raise funds for breast cancer awareness and support services.

It costs €20 +online fees and you can enter HERE

You can walk, jog or run the distance on your own or with a friend. The main thing is that it raises funds for this charity.

Marie Keating Foundation Virtual 5/10k : 1 October 2021 - 31 October 2021

Note that there is a t-shirt included in the entry fee and there is the option of paying extra for a medal or even donating a bit more.

From the Marie Keating Foundation: Show your support for those affected by breast cancer by running, walking or jogging 5 or 10K in your local area this breast cancer awareness month.

Kindly supported by Pigsback, all funds raised from this challenge will go towards supporting our vital breast cancer awareness and support services year round.

Every year in Ireland, 3,704 people are diagnosed with breast cancer. For 23 years the Marie Keating Foundation has been there supporting men and women affected by breast cancer at every step of their journey. They also raise awareness of the importance of cancer prevention and early detection to ensure that more and more people come out the other side of treatment.

After the success of last year’s virtual run, the Marie Keating Foundation, kindly supported by Pigsback.com,  are once again asking you to run, walk or jog your own 5/10K in your local area, and help to raise vital funds to support their life saving breast cancer awareness and support services.

Registration includes a Marie Keating Foundation/ Pigsback.com T-shirt with the option to purchase a commemorative challenge medal to mark your achievement. To take part and help support those at every step of their breast cancer journey, please register below.

Registration will be open until the 31st of October. You can log your results up until the 6th of November and if you wish you can see how your time compares to others taking up the challenge.
