To celebrate it's 10th year the Irish Examiner Cork City Marathon is calling on all uniformed personnel to take part in the Battle of the Badges.

The newly launched category will seek to encourage teams and individuals from the uniformed bodies such as the Gardaí, Fire Brigade, Ambulance, Naval Service, Registered Nurses, or anyone in uniform, to run for the honour of their profession.
