The Quadrathon 2026 is a four-day endurance running and walking festival held from August 13th to 16th, 2026 along the rugged coastlines of the Inishowen Peninsula in County Donegal, Ireland

Quadrathon 2026 has attracted entries from all over Europe and beyond, this interest is mostly attributed to “Word of mouth” by previous competitors who are again taking part in this amazing adventure. Irelands most celebrated and talked about this Challenge, “It’s not just a race, it’s an adventure experience with lifelong memories”

Óglaigh Náisiúnta na hÉireann (ONE) was founded in 1951 to support former members of the Irish Defence Forces and to ensure their service is never forgotten. ONE is a registered charity, its mission is to provide accommodation for homeless veterans and deliver a wide range of advice and mental health support through its network of branches, Veteran Support Centres, and dedicated Veteran Support Officers. As the organisation marks its 75th year in 2026, its mission remains clear: to stand with those who served when they need it most ensuring "No Irish Veteran is Left Behind" Pinterest Veterans are using this Quadrathon as a fundraising awareness event

This Challenge is a way for former service personnel to continue serving — by helping their fellow veterans and shine awareness on the plight of their fellow comrades who have found themselves homeless and in need of certain services. ONE (Organisation of National Ex-Service Personnel) are the only organisation providing accommodation and professional services to Irish Veterans.
