Camán Till Dawn Sunset Marathon
CAMÁN TILL DAWN SUNSET MARATHONIt is three years this June since the 2017 Camán Till Dawn overnight puckathon.
As we cannot use the club facilities for the foreseeable future, we are going to ‘run around Carrigtwohill’ (as the saying goes!) to raise mental health awareness and also to fundraise for Pieta.
Saturday, 20th June is the longest day of the year and sunset is 9.57pm. We are going to add one minute in memory of each the three young men in whose memory we held the 2017 event and give ourselves a 10pm sunset deadline to complete a relay marathon in 3 hours.
There will be six legs to the marathon and the starter’s gun will go off at 7pm. Representatives of the Camogie, Ladies Football, Juvenile and Adult clubs will run in relay, carrying a hurley as a baton, doing loops of the village. They will be clocking up 26.2 miles (42.2km) and trying to get home by sunset in their effort to achieve the three hour target on the third anniversary of our event in memory of three former Carrigtwohill GAA Club members who died by suicide.
Please support us as we seek to raise mental health awareness and much needed funds for Pieta.
