🚨 Entries are almost full for the 2026 12 Hour Challenge 🚨

If you’ve been thinking about it, this is your moment. Solo entries are now extremely limited, and relay entries are already 75% SOLD OUT. Once these places are gone, that’s it.

⏰ Entries close on 24th January — no extensions, no late entries.

Whether you’re planning to walk, run, cycle, take on the challenge solo or share the 12 hours with friends in a relay team, time is running out to secure your place.

Every single euro raised goes straight back into our community, supporting three vital local causes:
Athlone Samaritans, Athlone River Safety Awareness, and Infinity Friends.

💥 Don’t miss your chance to be part of something powerful.
