In its 12th year, The Turlough 8k will be taking place from the scenic grounds of the National Museum of Ireland - Country Life on the 11 of Feb.
This year the Turlough 8km Fun Run and Walk race is back up and running and it promises be better than ever. The run element of the event is registered with Athletics Ireland which will attract the top talent in the county. The event is organised by Mayo Mental Health Association and Parke Keelogues Crimlin GAA club alongside its partners Mayo AC and the National Museum of Ireland at Turlough Park.
The event will take place on the 11th of February at 12 noon and is open to young and old alike. We will also be continuing with the walk for those that are wishing to do so along with the virtual element for those further afield which has proven to be a huge success during COVID times. People can go it alone or grab your crew.
Make sure to tag us in any photos/videos over the weekend and use the hashtag #moveformayo to be entered into our raffle draw for some lovely prizes.
Monies raised will go to supporting Parke-Keelogues-Crimlin GAA club and funding different community projects & mental health initiatives for Mayo Mental Health Association.
Please note, entrants aged 15 years and older are eligible to the event. Unfortunately Athletics Ireland Insurance does not permit registration of entrants who are under 15 years old.
*All members of PKC GAA club irrespective of age will be eligible to register and run/walk the event.
Registration desk will be available on the day of the event itself.
