What a brilliant month of running for DLS!

June saw our members out in full force, taking on everything from local trails to international roads.

Huge congratulations to everyone who tackled the Enniskillen 10k,
Gaelforce Adventure Race,
Coney Island run,
and the Roscommon Harriers 10k.

A special mention also goes to our member who smashed the Chicago Half Marathon!

The rising temperatures made for some seriously tough conditions, but our runners dug deep and excelled as always. Brilliant work, everyone! 🙌

Well done to the DLS runners who ran the Lifford Half Marathon a few weeks ago!

The weather is warm, but we keep running 🏃🏃‍♀️

Don’t forget we run our Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday morning. If you can comfortably run 5k, then we’re the running club for you.

Contact us via socials if you’d like to join.

Come for the running but stay for the craic 😆

🏃‍♂️ DLS Running Group Update 🏃‍♀️

We’ve a small update to our weekly running schedule!

Our regular runs continue as normal:
📍 Tuesdays – Ballyshannon (Bayview Carpark) at 6:30pm
📍 Thursdays – Bundoran (carpark opposite the Allingham) at 6:30pm

⭐ New addition:
On the last Thursday of every month, our run will take place in Kinlough, meeting at the GAA clubhouse at 6:30pm, instead of Bundoran.

It’s a great way to mix things up and enjoy a different route each month!

👟 New members are always welcome
If you can comfortably run 5km, this is the perfect group for you.

Come along, get moving, and enjoy the run!

DLS were out ‘shamrockin’ those miles this morning! The road may have rose up to meet us, but the wind was definitely not at our backs! ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️

Happy St Patrick Day from all the DLS runners!

Well done to everyone from DLS who took part in the Bundoran 5km last night and the Bundoran 10 Mile today. 👏

It was the first time our newly founded club has participated in this event, and we were delighted to finish 14th out of 58 clubs — a fantastic achievement.

There were also plenty of personal bests recorded over the weekend, which makes it even more special. A great effort from everyone who represented DLS. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Onwards and upwards for the club! 💪
