Due to the current ongoing challenges with Covid 19 we have come to the decision to cancel our race for 2020.

Our priority is the health and safety of our athletes, volunteers and supporters and we cannot guarantee that with any certainty, at this time.

Training would be starting in the next few weeks, so we have taken the decision now before athletes start their race training.

As a club we would like to continue to offer our athletes and friends an opportunity to stay connected to us but apart via our Virtual Summer Series. Full details can be found on the clubs Facebook page.

We look forward to welcoming you all back to Dungarvan when it is safe to do so.
