Slieve Gullion Runners G821 RACE REPORT

Report by Eamon Murphy Sunday, 7th November 2021

Sunday morning the skies cleared and the sun shone on the G8:21 run at Slieve Gullion Forest Park. Over 300 participants took on the hilly 8km run, and 8 mile run. A smaller group headed of early to complete a walk of the 8km route.
