The inspiration for this race, which was run for the first time on August 15 1986, came from that great sports man Jack Mahon who had attended a number of such races in different parts of the country. It was run under the auspices of Clare River Harriers with a B.L.E. licence. It was a race designed for all the family with a central theme of “Sport for All” and was described as a ‘fun run’; there were no elite prizes but local businesses sponsored right down the field. There was a big display of the medallions for all the category winners in the window of The Great Outdoors.
