Conor, Colin & Paddy vs. the Wicklow Way - August 27th - 28th 2021.
In March 2021, Conor McCabe had the mad idea of running the entire 131km Wicklow Way from Marley Park, Co. Dublin to Clonegal, Co. Carlow. He roped his unsuspecting friend Colin McGough in to accompany him on this feat of endurance. Colin knew putting up with Conor the whole way round was a two-man job so he sought out some international flair but the best he could find was Paddy O'Meara from Athlone!
Join us in our journey to raise money for a very worthwhile charity Aoibheann’s Pink Tie which was set up in 2010 by Mick Rochford and Jimmy Norman after the tragic loss of Jimmy’s daughter Aoibheann to cancer aged just 8 years.
When Aoibheann passed away the men wore pink ties at the funeral which was Aoibheann’s favourite colour. The charity was formed in her memory to remedy the lack of support for other children and their families going through treatment.
Aoibheann’s Pink Tie helps to offer practical support to the families of children diagnosed with cancer and who are attending St John’s Oncology Ward in Our Lady’s Children’s Hospital. Focused on children attending the only treatment centre for childhood cancer in Ireland, their aim is to support the complete family unit, of parents and siblings, who may not understand what is happening to their Brother or Sister.
Please donate what you can to this very worthy cause and follow us on our journey to take on and conquer the Wicklow Way over the course of 2 days.

Thanks Andrew. Of course, ask away. I just made the video and drove the support car but I'll pass your questions on to the lads and come back to you.

@@lucky-productions amazing! - Did you need to do much as a support? - Did the lads do 2 64km days or did you tag team occasionally?

@@altheus - So we had dedicated meet points where they could grab something to eat, refill water, change out of sweaty clothes etc. This was probably every 10-15km I'd say, maybe more regular on day 2 when bodies were hurting. I was tracking them using Google Maps Live Location. If you're bringing a support car, tell him to bring a book. There's lots of waiting, running over a mountain can take an hour, driving around it can take 4 minutes. - No tag teaming. All 3 of them ran every inch of the trail.

So, just having a pint with 2 of the lads here and your comment got us talking about it again. Key piece of advice: they recommend running the other way, Carlow to Dublin instead of their Dublin to Carlow. Their 2nd day, when they were physically drained, was all roads and farmland. Day 1 was beautiful (glendalough etc) and better for morale. And you finish in Dublin (home, for us at least)
