Letterkenny, Lorraine and a little bit of motivation

There are a few things that popped into my mind for this blog entry, so here they go:

North West 10k Charity Race and Walk
Sunday May 3rd is the date for this years North West 10k Charity Race and Walk in Letterkenny.
You can enter online (http://www.northwest10k.com/) or on the day and the fee for registering is €10.
If you are walking or running in Letterkenny on the Bankholiday weekend - let us know how you get on.

Lorraine Keane
With Lorraine being in the news recently, I realised that I never gave you guys the link to the article on our website 'Lorraine Keane to run Mini Marathon for World Vision Ireland'.
So here you go: http://www.worldvision.ie/server.php?show=nav.1378

A little bit of motivation
And finally I wanted to share two running quotes with you that I really liked:
"The will to win means nothing without the will to prepare." - Juma Ikangaa, 1989 NYC Marathon winner
"Running is the greatest metaphor for life, because you get out of it what you put into it." - Oprah Winfrey

Last chance to enter!

Today is the closing date to register for the Flora Women's Mini Marathon 2009.

Without registering you won't be able to join the race on June Bankholiday Monday and we'd really like to share the experience with you - So get your skates on, or better said your mouse into action and click on https://www.womensminimarathon.ie/registration/enter_step1.asp to register online!
