Glenflesk pals to scale new heights
T
TWO Glenflesk men are set to exchange Carrantuohill for Mount Kilimanjaro in December. Pat Sheehan of the Loft Fitness Studio and his friend Niall Dennehy are training on Kerry’s hills and slopes and you can join them as they host a fundraising walk through the Gap of Dunloe on Sunday, October 22.
The 11km trek commences at 10am and forms part of the duo’s efforts to generate cash for the Irish Kidney Association.
Refreshments will be served at Lord Brandon’s Cottage and tickets, €25, include boat and bus transfer. “We are climbing Kilimanjaro on December 27, funded by ourselves, to raise funds for the Irish Kidney Association,” said Pat.
Training sessions to date include climbing Carrantuohill. There is limited availability for the Gap of Dunloe walk and tickets must be pre-booked; contact Pat on 087-6856930 or Theresa Looney on 087-2059205.
