(Race Start time has been amended from original start time to 1pm)
This year, the Struggle 10k / 5k is raising funds for the Red Cross, Doon Community Center & other good causes
In spite of the name, its not the hardest run in the world. The 5k is a pretty easy run. (The 5k is timed but classed as a Fun Run) As for 10k,(Measured with Jones Counter) It climbs on and off between 1k and 6k, more of long slow climb, by the time you get to the 6k marker, all the work is done, last 4k is down hill, it’s a gradual fall and makes the last 4k an easy easy enough run. If you’ve run Dunlickey Hill in Kilkee, on paper, this is a harder run, but running it, it isn’t any harder, more of a good test
There is a 7k Walk run in conjunction with both runs

DESCRIPTION
Every November, as darkness sweeps the globe, thousands of people in 50 cities will pull on their running shoes and red flashing armbands and hit the streets to Run in the Dark.
You can choose between running 5km or 10km… and if your running shoes are a little dusty, you can even walk the 5km route.
WHY YOU SHOULD TAKE PART
We know there are lots of running events out there, so why choose Run in the Dark?!
Apart from being a unique night run taking place in iconic locations around the world, there’s also an important cause fuelling this fundraising run. Run in the Dark is a global running movement helping to cure paralysis in our lifetime.
Run in the Dark is organised by the Mark Pollock Trust, named after blind Irish adventure athlete Mark Pollock. Unbroken by blindness in 1998, Mark Pollock suffered a catastrophic spinal cord injury in 2010 when he fell from a second story window that left him paralysed. As Mark strives to walk again, his most complex journey is ahead of him – to find a cure for paralysis.
