The Never Give Up 5k/10/k
2019-07-28 11:30 - 14:30 | Inch,Gorey, Co.Wexford
The Never Give Up 5k/10k road race is a charity event in aid of the Irish Cancer Society. It is taking place on Sunday the 28th of July 2019 in the village of Inch, Gorey, Co.Wexford. There is a 5k and a 10k option to choose from and both take you on a scenic loop around the countryside, once for the 5k and twice for the 10k. The course is an AAI measured route.
All proceeds of this event will be donated to the Irish Cancer Society, the national charity for cancer care here in Ireland.
Here is a message from the Race Director, Chris Proby:
“In August 2015, just a few months after running the Manchester Marathon, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of non-hodgkins lymphoma cancer at the age of just 32. It was aggressive and I was in a bad way, but thankfully due to a heavy chemotherapy and radiation treatment schedule I got the all clear in 2016, unfortunately 9 months later I relapsed. After further chemotherapy, full body radiation, and a bone marrow transplant I eventually got the all clear again in June 2017. Needless to say it was an incredibly difficult and scary experience.
Running was a huge motivator to help me through the treatment, it helped to keep me focused and determined to win the battle, twice. While I was in hospital I promised myself that once I beat cancer I would combine my love for running and my difficult cancer experience to create something positive, which is why I have organised this event. So come and join me in my home village for a great morning out, on a beautiful scenic route where I first started running, for a very great cause.”
Race Details
On the day registration will be available from 09.30am on Sunday 28th July 2019 at St Mogue’s Community Centre, Inch, Gorey, Co Wexford.

We’re giving runners of all levels the opportunity to team up with two friends, work colleagues, family members (or whoever!) and pit their fitness levels against rival teams, all vying to get their hands on the Donegal Marathon Team Challenge Cup.
So, why not join us on Sunday 18th August 2019 for what promises to be a great team building event for businesses and community groups. Participants can also use the event to raise much-needed funds for their chosen charity. In fact, we’d encourage charities to get behind the Donegal Team Challenge as well, by encouraging as many teams as possible to run on your behalf.Change over zones
Each runner will run 7km, change over areas at 7km and 14km.
