The Great Erris Run
The Great Erris Run is a community road event taking place in Mayo on 9 August 2026, based at the Broadhaven Bay Hotel. The event offers measured running distances and is presented as two options.
- 5K
- 10K
The event will be held in loving memory of a long-serving member of the Our Lady’s Secondary School community who worked as a teacher, coach, and Special Needs Assistant since 1995. All donations from this edition will support Erris Youth Disability Network (EYDN), an organisation that works to create inclusive opportunities for young people with special needs across education, training, employment, and everyday life in the local area.
Information provided by the organiser describes the 5K and 10K distances as open to all abilities and locates the gathering at Broadhaven Bay Hotel. The presentation focuses on remembrance and community support through charitable giving, alongside organised running over the two distances.
