Eoin Ryan (3D Tri) is doing an event for charity that involves him running 6.5 marathons in 6 days along the canals of Ireland.
Starting in Dublin he will run the length of the Grand Canal to the Shannon and then run from Longford back to Dublin on the Royal Canal .
Money goes to 2 x charities: 75% to Crumlin Children's Hospital and 25% to a home for Abandoned and Disabled children in Argentina (founded by an Irish Priest)
Ye may have seen the article in the Irish Runner magazine (March/ April) website has most of the info www.irishultrarunner.com
Bucket collections are taking place in Naas, Edenderry, Tullamore, Mullingar, Maynooth and Longford. Each one coincides with the day he passes through the towns.
The day for the collection in Mullingar is Sunday 22nd June.
It would be great if the Harriers and Midlands Tri could help to look after the collection in Mullingar. They are staying Sunday night in the Mullingar Park hotel. I reckon it would be a great opportunity to get some positive publicity for the two clubs and they will be engaging with all local media.
So, Eoin is putting out a call through us for volunteers to do the bucket collection From there they can get a count on the number of buckets and tshirts needed for the day.
If you're interested, would you respond to this report or email me as soon as you can and we'll get the ball rolling.
Thanks all, Killian
