Race Notice...Cheetah Run 4 mile - Thurs 17th May 2012

The annual Cheetah 4 mile race is coming up in Fota Wildlife Park on Thursday, the 17th of May 2012 at 8pm. The entry fee for this race is €10. Please note that for safety reasons, the numbers are limited to 800.

The level of interest in this race is likely to be very high and there will almost certainly be no entries on the night. The race entry of €10 includes access to Fota Wildlife Park. The normally costs €14 per adult, or €44 for a family of two adults and two children.

Families: Familes and other persons accompanying race entrants and Race Stewards will be allowed access Fota Wildlife Park provided they are accompanied through the access door by an athlete in possession of a race number.  Unaccompanied persons will not be admitted.

I would seriously advise people that have an interest in doing this race to enter as soon as possible. It really will sell out early. You can enter online HERE

The organisers hope to take entries on next Thursday evening before and after the Midleton 5 mile road race....assuming that the 800 limit isn't reached by then....Update...see below

Entry Status....Wed 2nd May @21:40pm.....Entries closed!!!


The race is sponsored by John Buckley Sports in Cork City. They have a special offer on the night to all participants in the Cheetah Run of a reduced price for the Soleus GPS watch (...on production of their race number until the 29th of May).

Normal Price  €130.00   -  SPECIAL  €100.00

John Buckley Sports is one of the main specialist running shops in Cork City and have a wide stock of gear in the shop and on their website....www.johnbuckleysports.com

They have been in business since 1981 and it's fair to say that the shop is highly regarded by many of the runners on the local road race scene.
