Trim Athletic club thank all the runners who took part in the fourth edition of the Braveheart 5km. Your involvement in this unique event is appreciated by the club and our two selected charities The LauraLynn Childrens Hospice House and the Meath/Louth branch of Cystic Fibrosis Ireland. We as a club are lucky to have such a hard working crew of volunteers who put their shoulders behind the wheel to make things happen. They have already pulled out all the stops for our 2 3km street runs and they shone once agin with Braveheart.

Trim AC was greatly helped in the organisation and staging of the event by the generosity of the following sponsors and donors. In the current economic circumstances our club greatly appreciates their contributions. We encourage all in the local community to show their appreciation by supporting the following companies,individuals and organisations. Remember the voluntary sector which has held the social fabric of this country together through thick and thin throughout the decades is heavily reliant on generous voluntary contributions.
