JFK 50 Mile charity challenge goes virtual for 2020 on iDonate

JFK 50 Mile charity challenge goes virtual for 2020 on iDonate.

Trekking enthusiasts will now be able to take on the iconic JFK 50 Mile charity challenge from anywhere in the world with the event set to go virtual for 2020.

The traditional charity fundraiser on the stunning Moylagh route across Meath, Westmeath and Cavan regrettably had to be cancelled this year due to Covid-19 restrictions.

However, the new virtual event will see participants complete as much of the challenge as they can from a location of their choice on Saturday 8th August, with their progress tracked on a virtual map of the traditional trek.

The challenge is based on an endurance test handed down by John F Kennedy to the US military to cover 50 miles on foot within 20 hours, and has raised more than €750,000 for cancer charities since the first event nine years ago.

To be a part of the Moylagh JFK 50 Mile Challenge from anywhere in the world simply register on iDonate.
