Grant Thornton Virtual 5K

Organiser: Grant Thornton Virtual 5K

Aug 14, '20 at 8:00 am - Aug 16, '20 at 5:00 pm

COVID-19 will not keep us standing still…. The GT5K 2020 is here and this year it’s virtual!

We want to keep our workforces healthy and running around the country, so for the first time in 2020, the GT5K will run across the whole island of Ireland on the 14/15/16 August.

This year we ask you to #DoItForDementia as the registration fee will be split between Alzheimer’s Society of Ireland and supporting up and coming athletes.

This year we invite you to register as a team or an individual, run your best 5K over the weekend of 14–16 August and register your time and watch the leaderboard. GT5K 2020 invites corporate teams, family teams, sports club teams or the individual runner to take part, compete and do if for dementia.

In a year where all charities will struggle we are delighted to support Alzheimer’s in Ireland in advocating, empowering and championing the rights of people living with dementia and their communities.

The event also supports the development of young athletes with Athletics Ireland’s junior high performance programme, enabling them to reach their full potential.

When you register you will receive a virtual goodie bag (received event week) and an option to buy a GT5K run technical running jersey to add your collection – or start it!

Logistics of registering and recording times:

  1. Log on to https://eventmaster.ie/event/8veF7qTV1
  2. You can choose to run as an individual, create a team for your company or join an existing team
  3. Record your best 5k and submit by 12:00 midnight on 16 August
