THE 41st AN COSANTÓIR 10KM ROAD RACE
race day, with some
excellent assistance from
the OPW and members
of the Gardaí. It was
a very successful and
safe day for all who
took part. As a serving
member myself, I believe
all serving members and
retirees should continue
to support our great DF
event for many years to
come and continue to
keep that personal link to
the organisation and to
all of our former comrades. Over 1500 runners and walkers
registered to take part this year, with many taking part and
running in different locations at home, and with over 200
taking part in overseas locations. On the race day, over 450
runners and walkers crossed the start line.
