Event Description:

COVID 19 will not keep us standing still…. The GT5K 2020 is here and this year it’s virtual.

This year we ask you #doitfordementia as the registration fee will be split between Alzheimer’s Society of Ireland, and supporting up and coming Irish athletes.

This year we invite you to register as a team or an individual, run your best 5K over the weekend of 14th – 16th August and submit your time. There will be a live individual and team leaderboard and  GT5K 2020 invites corporate teams, family teams, sports club teams or the individual runner to register and #doitfordementia.

All registered participants will have the option to purchase a 2020 Virtual GT5K technical running jersey to add to, or start your collection. A digital goodie bag will be sent to all participants during race week.

Logistics of registering and recording times:

  • Register your entry on Eventmaster
  • Choose to run as an individual, create a team for your company, or join an existing team.
  • A team entry is for 4 runners.  Teams can be entered in one of 3 categories, male, female or mixed.
  • Submit your time via Eventmaster between Aug 14th - Aug 16th. Further details will be emailed to all participants with instructions of how to submit a time in advance of race week.
  • Your 5k time must be submitted by 12 midnight on 16th August.
  • Once verified, your time will appear on the leaderboard.
