Slieve Gullion Runners will host the G8 on the 1st July at 10am
Having established SGR as one of the most popular running teams in the country it is now time to host a running event at our beautiful home of Slieve Gullion Forest Park.
This year we are offering a 8k and 8mile run/walk distance, fully chipped event entirely with in the park.
The stunning Slieve Gullion Park will have all routes fully waymarked following the forest trial at the Giants Lair onto the scenic drive surrounding the park. This year we are introducing a #ZEROWASTE campaign, maintaining the natural beauty of Slieve Gullion, our water stops will be utilising reusable water cup and providing jelly sweets, removing all disposable cups and sweet wrappers from the course route.
Slieve Gullion Runners’ G8 are delighted to be supporting the great work of the Samaritan across Ireland and a contribution of the proceeds of the event will be given to Samaritans to enable the continuation of their great work.
