Waterford Viking Marathon 2012
Dublin, Cork, Limerick, and Belfast have one, and now Waterford can be added to that list. The 30th June 2012 sees Waterford host the first ever marathon in the South East region. In keeping with the city’s great Viking history the Marathon will be named Waterford Viking Marathon (WVM). Organisers estimate it will attract over 1000 + runners bringing a welcome boost to retailers and accommodation providers in the city.
Speaking at the launch in Waterford Crystal Chairman of WVM Des Whelan said “This is a unique and first off event for Waterford city and one which we hope will grow in the years ahead. It’s a great opportunity for people to embrace a healthy lifestyle whilst also supporting charities of their choice; we in WLR FM are delighted to get behind this event. more »
