An endurance event in Cleggan, Co. Galway, combining a 1-kilometre swim, a stone lift, a 5-kilometre run, and a pint.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-21 issue.

Why it surfaced

The course has a wonderfully specific logic: swim the bay, choose a stone, run over Sheeauns, then finish at Oliver's Bar. The site frames the event as a test of local toughness, with registration open for 31 July 2027 at low tide.
