Run Clare Series Race 1 – 5km
2020-01-25 11:00 - 17:00 | clare, Clare
**All venues to be confirmed**
A HUGE THANK YOU to absolutely everyone who has taken part in run Clare 2019! You were all amazing!
Everyone on the Run Clare committee is dedicated to running; we all love it! We have all been involved in the sport one way or another for most of our lives. We live it and breathe it. One sunny day in 2014 we had the brain wave of encouraging everyone to share our passion for the sport and created our amazing series.
We have listened to feedback and decided to make a couple of changes to keep the series fresh and exciting! We are delighted to announce that we will be moving locations to new areas of the Banner County…
The 5k will be in Lisdoonvarna, it’ll be a great way to start the journey around the country lanes. The 5 mile will take us to Spanish Point, where the route will take close to the Atlantic, then to Ennis for the Eamon Moloney 10k, where the urban location is known for its family atmosphere and fast, flat route. Finally we are heading to East Clare for the 10 mile.
Finishers prizes to be announced in the coming weeks! Tech tops for the first 400 entries in the 10k.
We all start together but we may not all finish together, what matters is that we all have achieved something incredible as an individual.
Where else would you get 4 races over 4 months with all the trimmings you know we do?? In 2019 we had over a 1000 runners from 24 counties sign up for the series, lets get the whole of Ireland coming to Clare and prove that the Banner know about races!
4 races. 4 months. 1 goal.

The Fly High Lily Remembrance Run
2020-02-08 09:30 | Phoenix Park, Dublin, Dublin, Dublin 8
Race Entry Here
On 8th February 2020 we are hosting a charity run for Spina Bifida & Hydrocephalus Ireland and Lilly’s Garden.
This run is to commemorate Lily Daly who died at the age of 7.5 due to sudden complications and onset of acute Hydrocephalus. Lily was one of a kind. She was a ball of positive energy bouncing around with love for everyone. Her enthusiasm and passion was infectious along with her unbridled imagination.
She packed a lifetime into her precious short 7.5 characterful and colourful years leaving her mark on everyone she came in contact with, especially her school friends at Gaelscoil Inse Chor, it truly was her home from home.
Even though she was only 7 and a half she showed an empathy that was beyond her years, caring for others. She is missed beyond measure every moment of every day, her cheeky smile, her determined nature, her joyful outlook on life.
To mark Lilys memory and to celebrate her life, the incredible teachers, parents and pupils at her school are aiming to create an amazing outdoor classroom by way of a sensory outdoor garden – a way for other kids to explore, imagine and belong, just as Lily did. We can see her now bursting with the excitement at the thought of this. She would love the idea of an outdoor classroom in her name. As a family, it would mean the world to us knowing that Lily’s legacy will live on.
Funds raised will go toward the outdoor classroom in Gaelscoil Inse Chor and Spina Bifida and hydrocephalus Ireland. SBHI
Start time is 9.30am and the run will take place in the beautiful surrounds of Phoenix Park.
5k is the distance of the main event with a 2.5k untimed option available also. All are welcome – young & old, walkers & runners. Your support for this great cause is greatly appreciated
