Ireland Fund Young Leaders Global 5K • Sep 26

The Ireland Fund Young Leaders from around the world will host an event together “The Irish Run the World, a Global 5K race” on September 26, 2015. The event will span over 20hrs, and cover 75km, in 15 different cities and 6 different countries. Starting in Brisbane, Australia, the Young Leaders will run a 5km in their respective city before passing the ‘virtual baton’ off to the next city. The San Francisco stage takes place at 9:30am at Ocean Beach. The Global 5k will conclude when the last Young Leader crosses the finish line in Los Angeles. All funds raised will go to benefit The Ireland Funds Promising Ireland Campaign to assist worthy charities across the island of Ireland and Irish causes around the world. more info

We are at it again, another The Irish Run the World 5k “race” that takes place in 15 citiesin 6 countries on One day.  Last year the San Francisco Young Leaders chapter had the largest turnout of the series with 81 runners and globally we raised $100,000 for charities in Ireland in that one day!  The virtual relay race series will once again close in San Francisco and with a bit of luck the current fine weather will stay with us, we will be starting at Ocean Beach near the Cliff House.

Pre-registration IS REQUIRED – $40 incl running shirt.  Please sign up now as t-shirts are ordered and shipped to S.F.
