New Junior 2k parkruns planned for Togher, Mallow & Dunmanway in 2023


In the last fortnight, we've seen two new 2k junior parkruns for 4-14 year olds start in Ballinlough and Gurranabraher in Cork City. These join the existing events in Cobh and Ballincollig to bring the current total of junior parkruns in Co Cork to four.

In a previous post, I outlined the plans for a new junior 2k parkrun in Clashduv Park in Togher.

The latest news is that there are plans for another two junior 2k parkruns in Mallow and Dunmanway. These projects generally take quite a while to get up and running but hopefully there will be seven junior 2k parkruns in Cork by the end of 2023.

If anyone would like to volunteer or help out at these new events then send an email to matt DOT shields AT parkrun DOT com
