Not long to go now to our 8th annual Mini Marathon which takes place on Monday 5th June at 12 noon from Moyne Sportsfield over our by now very familiar Killoran route. This is a relatively flat route and if weather conditions favour us participants can anticipate a personal best at 10k. Entry fee is €15 and all finishers will receive a medallion for their efforts. The top three men and ladies will be awarded with prizes of €50, €30 and €20 respectively with the added incentive of an additional €50 if the course records are broken. These currently stand at 32.07 for the men and 37.04 for the ladies courtesy of Kevin Maunsell, Clonmel and Dympna Ryan, Dundrum. Refreshments will be served for all afterwards. Everyone is welcome to race, run, jog or walk the 10k and also if they wish they can raise funds for a charity of their choice. Two notable groups are currently signed up to take part with the Thurles Friends of Chernobyl Group and the Irish Heart Foundation via the Anner Hotel, Thurles bringing along members to take part and fundraising for their own charities. Why not give them some support and walk or run with them on the day.
