31st Donoughmore 7M Road Race, Fri 19-Jul-2013, 8pm

This is the 31st running of the Donoughmore A.C. 7M road race, making it one of the older club races on the Cork calendar. There’s a lot of competition in the race calendar with many fun runs, charity runs, fund-raising runs and commercial runs. The Donoughmore 7M is a club race with strong community support. It is not a fundraiser and runs on a “break even” basis. Donoughmore A.C. would very much appreciate your support.
