Big turnout for Carrick-on-Suir's annual GOAL Mile walk/run

Pictured above is the large crowd of walkers and runners who gathered at the front gates of Ormond Castle in Carrick-on-Suir on Christmas Day morning to take part in the town’s annual GOAL Mile fundraiser in aid of the Irish charity GOAL that has responded to almost every major humanitarian crisis around the world since its foundation in 1977. 

The annual event is organised by Carrick-on-Suir Road Runners.  Check out more photos from the event in this week's edition of The Nationalist now on sale in local shops.
