Story

The Denis Rankin Round is a circuit of all the peaks in the Mourne mountains over 400m in height, covering 90km and 6500m in ascent. The challenge is to complete this within a 24 hour period. The Round is named after Denis Rankin, a pioneer and leading light in fell running and mountain marathons in Northern Ireland since the 1970’s, who tragically died on 16th May 2013 competing in a fell race on Slievemoughanmore.

2024 is the 10 year anniversary of The Denis Rankin Round and to commemorate this, BARF are organising a team relay for the mountain running community, with the aim to also fundraise for the Mourne Mountain Rescue Team. This will give the opportunity for teams of 3-5 to take part in a relay as a team style event.

Please give generously to support a vital service and commemorate one of Ireland's iconic mountain runners.
