Congratulations and well done to the 10 club members who successfully completed the Tom Crean Endurance Walk in Co. Kerry this weekend, with special congratulations to the 5 members taking part for the first time.
We were greeted by warm sunshine from the start, although the ground remained wet underfoot in parts following heavy rain earlier in the week. The 30km route began with the ascent of Mount Brandon, taking in Brandon Peak and Ballysitteragh before descending to the Conor Pass, where we rested before tackling the remaining 14km across the mountains to Annascaul.
After a day of sun, laughs and amazing views, we received their medals on the lawn of the South Pole Inn, before a well deserved BBQ in Hanafin's Pub.
