  A Mugs Race on Cape Clear Island

A Mugs Race on Cape Clear Island Saturday July 16th

It’s certainly going to be a mugs race on Cape Clear Island next Saturday 16 July for the second 5k fun race. Last year the inaugural event attracted over 90 entrants and this year organisers hope for an even better turnout. Its part of a series of fun races on the various West Cork Islands and winners in the different categories can expect to win specially commissioned Cape Clear Island mugs, also captioned  Rithigí Linn 2016. Thanks to our local Goat Farmer, Ed Harper this year’s event will start at the Heritage Centre, go through his working goat farm, with fabulous views framed by a magnificent landscape, following the old Bóthar Lár back onto the main Island loop leading back to North Harbour. It’s a great event, in a great setting and if last year’s festive  atmosphere is anything to go by it will be enjoyed by all, runners, joggers and walkers alike.

The event starts at 12.30pm with ferries departing Baltimore at 10.30 am and Schull at 11am. Refreshments will be provided in Club Cléire afterwards.
