Entries for this year’s Warriors Run in Strandhill sold out three hours after online registration opened this weekend.
Registration opened on Friday afternoon at 4pm – and shortly after 7pm that evening, organisers confirmed that all 1200 places had been taken.
The Warriors Run, a ten-mile run from the Cannon at Strandhill Village in Co Sligo to the top of Knocknarea mountain – and back – is one of the signature local sporting events in Sligo each year.
This year’s race, the 37th edition of the event, will take place on Saturday, August 26th, at 3:15pm.
It was won last year by local runner, Seamus Somers, from Sligo Athletic Club.
Organisers say there will be some race transfers available in July – as successful entrants may be unable to take part in the run.
Details of this will appear on the Warriors Run website and social media pages during the summer.
