Some numbers…

At the moment all I can say is that there is not many of bib numbers… I would be expecting to have little bit more of these at this stage.

This year I got just two bib numbers. One from ‘Hell and Back’ (back in February) and recently from Samsung Night Run.

Cork Marathon 2014

Hopefully on 2nd of June I will be very happy finishing my first marathon in Cork. Never did that before… Will see…

I have decided to do that marathon to raise some funds for Cara Junior School in Cork. That is special school which at the moment is placed in temporary building. To, ease at least some pain of getting money for new building I will try to get donation from whoever I can. Read more

Samsung Night Run 2014

Just over a week to Samsung Night Run. It will start at 9 PM on 27th of April.
For the first year, the 10k race will kick off in Cork and Dublin at the same time. Every runner’s time counts as the city with the fastest average wins. That’s the goal to be faster than Cork 😉 Read more
