Kilcullen tops county in Every Step Counts

Some young participants in Kilcullen GAA Lights Up walk.

Participants supporting Kilcullen GAA in the MyLife GAA Every Step Counts Challenge have stepped the local club to the top place in the county and fourth place in Leinster, writes Brian Byrne.

With a total of almost 10,500km logged for the Kilcullen club, the 182 walkers registered to Kilcullen among the 207 clubs participating are outpaced so far only by St Columcille’s in Meath (16,524km), Clontarf GAA (12,517), and Ringtown Hurling (12,523).

Liam Cronin, organiser of the Kilcullen entry, says a big thank you on behalf of the club to everyone who has helped them to this point. “It’s not too late to sign up,” he says to anyone who’d still like to come aboard the effort. “We’d love to reach our goal of 200 walkers. Just download the MyLife by Irish Life app from the Apple Store or Google Play and follow the registration instructions to Kilcullen GAA.”

He also reminds people that the Thursday night Kilcullen GAA Lights Up Walk is now under way until 24 February. At this week’s start of the fitness initiative there were 63 walkers. It starts on Thursday evenings from 7.45pm.
