Aon Mullingar Half Marathon nearly sold out

Excitement is reaching a fever pitch as the AON Mullingar Half Marathon, scheduled for St. Patrick's Day, is virtually sold out. This highly anticipated event has attracted runners from near and far, eager to participate in the celebration of fitness and festivity.

The photo captures the vibrant spirit of the half marathon, featuring Sinead and Timmy proudly modelling the official race t-shirt. The design of the t-shirt is a nostalgic nod to the iconic Diving Board at Lough Owel, Mullingar's own "Forty Foot". This reference brings back fond memories of youthful outings, daring Christmas dips, and the cherished annual three days of summer characterised by essential red tans and the soothing embrace of after-sun lotion.

The AON Mullingar Half Marathon is not just a race; it is a community event that celebrates the rich heritage and camaraderie of the people of Mullingar. As participants prepare to take on the scenic route, they will carry with them the joyous spirit of St Patrick's Day and the collective memory of countless summer days spent by the waters of Lough Owel. In addition, there is no better reflection of community spirit, than all proceeds of the race event going to the Homeless Charity T.E.A.M, which provides for homeless women and children in the midlands.

With only a few spots remaining, those wishing to join this memorable event are urged to secure their entries without delay. The AON Mullingar Half Marathon promises to be an unforgettable experience, blending the thrill of athletic achievement with the warmth of shared community history.
