THERE is a challenge suitable for everyone in this year’s Dromtrasna Challenge which takes place in the West Limerick countryside on Saturday, october 16.

Children get their chance with a 2km Kids Run starting at 10am. Then at 11am, the 4km walk begins along with a 5km and 10km chip-timed run.

“There is something for everyone in this year’s event,” says Kieran Flannery, one of the founding organisers of the event which has raised over €88,000 for charities since it began.

The challenge was unable to go ahead last year because of Covid-19, Kieran adds, and he urged people to come out and take that step this year in aid of Milford Care Centre. Thus far, the annual challenge has raised €88,146.15 for very deserving causes.
