LISTEN BACK: Three Co Monaghan men complete gruelling 48 hour running challenge in aid of local Cancer Societies

Three Co Monaghan men have completed a gruelling 48 hour running challenge in aid of the Irish Cancer Society, and the Castleblayney and Ballybay Cancer Societies.

Gearóid Coyle, Ryan McMahon, and Jason Monaghan undertook the so-called 'David Goggins Challenge' last weekend.

It sees participants run four miles, every four hours, for 48 hours, and over €2,000 has been raised so far.
