Black and amber 4-mile run to honour the late Aidan McGlynn in Letterkenny

The Black and Amber four-mile run, honouring the memory of the late Aidan McGlynn, is scheduled to take place for a second year. 

Originally from Rockhill, Aidan moved to Donegal Town. He was a member of Letterkenny Athletic Club and a backroom team member of St Eunan’s GAA Club. The clubs are jointly hosting the memorial event honouring Aidan, who died on September 5, 2024, after being diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2023. 

The run will take place on Sunday, March 1, at 10am in Letterkenny.  Further details on the Black & Amber 4 Mile will be announced in due course, but organisers promise a ‘fast, flat course,’ and the run will be chip-timed.
