The 7th Annual Knocknarea 8 Mile Loop Run and Walk takes place on Sunday 12th August in Strandhill, Co. Sligo. Walk kicks off at 10.00am followed at 10.30am by the run. This is an AAI Registered event.
Register online at strandceltic.com or the Knocknarea 8 Mile Loop facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/Knocknarea8MileLoop/
Entry fees for the run and walk are €15 for the run and €10 for the walk. This year the Knocknarea 8 Mile Loop is sponsored once again by Tegre Sliding Wardrobes. Chip timing for the race is provided by Core Timing.
The run and walk are open to people of all abilities. The course is essentially an 8 mile loop around the picturesque Knocknarea Mountain starting and finishing in Strandhill. There will be two water stations on the course as well as mile markers to allow contestants to keep track of their progress. The race and walk promise to be a fun event but the route includes challenges for both the novice and experienced runner as the course includes two category 5 climbs, the first of these being the Glen Road. The run has proved to be an ideal warm-up for the Warriors Run for many runners over the last few years. There are prizes for all categories and refreshments with be served in the Strand Celtic Clubhouse afterwards. There is a special prize if either of our male or female winners can set a new course record.
The run is being held as a fundraiser for Strand Celtic FC.
