THE country’s most inclusive marathon got a massive energy boost yesterday.

Cork sports stars Graham Canty, Gillian O’Sullivan and Aoife Murray got on their marks as Bord Gáis Energy confirmed it will sponsor the Cork City Marathon, which takes place on June 1.

It is expected to attract a record 10,000 entries and the Irish Cancer Society has been nominated as the charity of choice for the event.
