Derval O'Rouke supports Bay Run '12 Half-Marathon...

Press release from the organisers of the Bay Run Half-Marathon...

In this Olympic year in which sports will dominate the agenda this summer, Derval O Rourke is delighted to support Bay Run '12 - Half Marathon in Bantry which will take place on May 6th. The Irish Olympic hopeful believes more and more people should be involved in sports at any level and the idea of challenging yourself to a half marathon which is set amongst some of the best scenery Ireland has to offer is a fantastic opportunity to test yourself at this distance.

Derval added, "we are now lucky in Ireland that the number of events and the level of participation has increased significantly in the last numbers of years. The Bay Run - Half Marathon was recently voted as the best half marathon in Munster in 2011, so this reflects on the level of organisation and management now expected at these events. I'm hoping that this year more people will be encouraged to get out there and challenge themselves and improve their fitness levels and overall health by taking part in such events.'
