There is a Video Here of the Runway Run made by Shannon Airport.

The Shannon Airport – Bank of Ireland Runway Run  took place at the local airport on Friday 17th June last.

The run, in it’s third year, offers runners the chance to run 5k and 7.5km along the runway in the dark. Interesting choice this one but one that 2,500 runners took. The runners arrived in great form from all over the country to take part at the midnight jog.

Entry is 20 euro and almost all the monies collected go to the various charities as main sponsor is Shannon Aviation Authority and Bank of Ireland.

The event was another huge success this year with Marty Morrissey of RTE, a proud clareman officiating.
