€30 for 5 races and post race party is great value.
As usual the Series is open to all, but with an emphasis on Fit4Life runners joggers and walkers. Many have taken their “first steps” in these events in previous years. Local athletic clubs and fitness groups are very welcome.
All courses are AAI measured /permitted, well marshaled with finish line time clock. The five races provide a variety of courses and challenges. This year Castlebar will be on a new route, and Brickens is a welcome new addition. A great opportunity to record a better time each week so you are encouraged to participate in all five.
The emphasis is on fun – first man/women finisher in each race will be recognised.
Series is limited to 300 approx due to safety. Online entries closed on 17 June.
one event = €7.
Mayo AC encourage as many members as possible to take part or to assist as volunteers.
Local organisers are asked to promote car pooling to help parking arrangements at all venues.
As in previous years the event will be supported by Mayo Sports Partnership.
