**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.
