Race Notification: Gas Networks Ireland 5k

The next race on our calendar is the Gas Networks Ireland 5k on Wednesday July 10 at 8pm. Registration takes place at Cork Boat Club from 6.30pm. Please note that the race starts close to Lee Rowing Club so you should be registered by 7.45pm at the very latest. Parking is limited near Cork Boat Club in Blackrock Village so it would be worth car pooling or cycling if possible. The 202 bus from town stops nearby too. You can always register for a friend too to save them having to turn up at registration.

To be in with a chance to win a pair of Nike Pegausus runners from John Buckley Sports, go to the Facebook event page, and like, share and tag 2 friends. Winner will be announced on the day of the race.

As if that’s not enough, the first 500 runners registered on the night will receive a Gas Networks Ireland Keep Cup.
