Cork hurlers take on new marathon challenge for Marymount hospice

The players will each do an hour-long solo-run with a hurley and sliotar, one after the other, either in their back garden or within the 2km lockdown radius, with all donations going to help Marymount maintain its services.

They may be facing a long summer without championship hurling but the senior Cork hurling squad has taken on a marathon solo-run challenge for a hospice.

The players and their back room team have agreed to solo-run for 42-hours this weekend for Marymount Hospice in Cork.
