The very first running of the East Clare 12K takes place in Kilkishen on Monday next May 4th . It is open to runners, walkers and cyclists over a very picturesque course on the shores of Cullaun Lake and taking in approx 1.5km of Cullaun Wood

The walkers will have a water or snack stop at Cullaun House which has a beautiful setting on the shores of the lake. One steep hill as well in route towards Carggaunowen Ring Forte which may not be too favourable with cyclists

The main sponsor is LENMAC SERVICES and all proceeds go to the Irish Cancer Society. The running competition will be very competitive as there are valuable sponsored prizes for the first 4 men and the first 4 ladies home. There will also be spot prizes for the walkers and cyclists

Registration takes place in the GAA Clubhouse on the day between 11am and 12 noon. The individual entry fee is €10, a family can participate for €20 . The walkers and cyclists will get on the road at 12 noon and the runners have a scheduled start at 12.30pm. There are tog out facilites and showers available in the clubhouse for both ladies and gentlemen

Sponsorship cards are still available and will be posted to you by ringing Patsy Neville at 087 9691415 or from the other committee members of Micheal O’Brien, James Murphy or Kevin Sammon. There is a raffle of a holiday in Sunny Beach Bulgaria ( 7 days, apartment only ) for anyone who collects €150 or more by way of sponsorship for the Irish Cancer Association. Of course you can also take part on the day with the appropriate entry fee or with a donation to the association.

All sponsorship cards and receipts must be handed in at registration on the day, to qualify for any raffles or other items such as T Shirts. This is very important as all moneys to the Irish Cancer Association must be forwarded within 20 days of the event and nobody likes chasing people for money after an event.
