THERE’S just days to go until the Kerins O’Rahillys 10K/5K Run which takes place on Sunday, January 30 from the Strand Road Clubhouse and there’s still time to register.
The race honours one of the club’s dearly loved and sadly missed members, Marie Nix and a medal with her image will be presented to participants who complete the run.
Marie became involved in all aspects of the Kerins O’Rahillys ladies’ club, but her main interest was training the underage girls.

With Marie’s untimely passing on the November 20, 2020, after a long battle with illness, a sense of shock and sadness engulfed the club and beyond.

With the run, members and friends will get a chance to honour Marie, whose funeral took place under Covid restrictions so the traditional Gaelic gathering could not take place.
Everyone is invited to come along this Sunday at 11am to run or walk the 5k/10k to remember Marie and let the Nix and Slattery families know how much they miss Marie. Click here to register.
They will also take entries for Kerins O RAHILLYS 5/10k event in the club bar on Saturday from 2pm to 8pm and Sunday morning 9am to 10.30am. Reg number collection also available at these times.
