Couch to Wild Atlantic Way for Croí

Discover The Beauty Of Ireland’s West Coast With Croí’s second virtual 'Couch To Wild Atlantic Way' challenge!

Join Croí, the Heart & Stroke Charity, this St. Patrick’s Day on a virtual mission and discover Ireland’s stunning West Coast with Croí’s Couch to Wild Atlantic Way. Embrace your wild side by running, walking or jogging part of this spectacular coastal route over the next six weeks. Your progress will be tracked through a very snazzy interactive map, where people can sponsor you along the way.

“We launched this event last year to give people an exciting virtual mission in support of Croí, while adhering to the guidelines. Our interactive Wild Atlantic Way map connects people with the beautiful west coast, even from their local 5km,” says Croí’s Fundraising Director, Christine Flanagan.

Demand for Croí services has increased throughout the pandemic, with Croí responding to the needs of those living with heart disease and stroke with a range of new services including a free telephone helpline called Heartlink West, virtual stroke support groups, virtual fitness classes, online webinars and health chats.

“We hope you will join us on this virtual mission. Your support is vital to Croí. Every euro raised will help the fight against heart disease and stroke,” says Flanagan.

Registration is just €15, and all registrants receive an eco-friendly Couch to Wild Atlantic Way medal, and participants who raise over €50 will receive a seriously cool Wild Atlantic Way t-shirt! This is an opportunity you don't want to miss out on. Register at www.croi.ie/waw

Let's fight heart disease and stroke together, one step at a time.
