It’s that time of year again when we asking for your support in our annual charity event, The 24 hour Tom Crean Dingle Peninsula Challenge. This year we are joined by 8 different teams from around the country and we have a national charity taking part in Cybersafekids

In 4 years we have raised over €150,000 for the charities involved and It would be greatly appreciated if you could support/donate to us in any way possible using the Donate button above. We know this stuff isn’t easy but any support is greatly appreciated as always.

The 24-hour challenge will kick off at 9pm on Friday, 30th August. Starting from the Aqua Dome (Tralee), we will walk the Dingle Way to Inch Beach, covering 30km. From there, we will cycle 33km to Páidi Ó Shea’s pub in Ventry, followed by an 8.5km jog over the mountain to Tig Áine’s restaurant near Cloghers beach. The journey continues with a 15km cycle to the Glens North walking trail car park, followed by a 13km hike across the Mt. Brandon (963mt) range and descent to Faha car park near Cloghán village. The descent also includes a swim in one of the Pater Noster lakes with the faint hope of it being refreshing and bringing us back to life. Back on our bikes, the next leg takes us on a 28km cycle to Derrymore beach, followed by the penultimate leg of a 5km kayak to Fenit. The final 12.5km takes us onto the wonderful greenway, branching off at the Spa to take the coastal route to the canal and our finishing point at the Aqua Dome. The challenge will culminate at 9pm on Saturday, 31st August, after covering a total distance of 145km (90 miles). Download our PDF brochure of the event
