Castlehackett National School has announced that the eighth annual ‘Castlehackett 8K’ will take place this year on Sunday, 11 June at 10am.

The event has grown over the years, with over 200 participants completing the race last year, with most people running, some walking and others on bikes and buggies!

All money raised from previous Castlehackett 8K events were put towards the school’s own running track and astro playing surface which has already been developed, and has been a major success.

The next stage of the plan is the covering of the running track with an astro surface.

Those who wish to participate can register on www.castlehackett8k.com – or on the day of the event.

There will be a free technical shirt up to 300 participants, cash prizes for the first three male and female runners, fantastic raffle prizes and refreshments provided.

Participants can get more information at castlehackett8k.com and keep an eye on their Facebook and Instagram pages at facebook.com/castlehackett8k and instagram.com/castlehackett8k/
