This is the 8th year of the Castleknock 5km. We are delighted that we can all participate in person again after these tough 2 years.
This event brings the community together and we are really looking forward to seeing everyone. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all participants who helped us raise much needed funds for our selected charities. To date we have raised €140,000 for our chosen charities. This year our chosen charity is the Irish Red Cross.
This is a Family Fun Day on Fathers day welcomes runners/walkers of all abilities. Refreshments will be provided after the race. Join us and make this a fun day out for all the family to remember.
The first 800 entries will receive T-Shirt. Your number/chip and T-Shirt will be be posted out to you in advance. We would like to thank Flynn & Associates who has kindly offered to be our main sponsor for this year’s event.
