The first Tipperary man ever to run 100 marathons! Some man for one man!

NEILIE HALL COMPLETES 100 MARATHONS

Congratulations to Neilie Hall who was honoured with the Mentor of the Month award at the Butler Bar Sports Achievements Awards in Fethard on Friday last.

The ‘Mentor of the Month’ award was won by local athlete Neilie Hall. Neilie was recently honoured in Galway by the Marathon Club Ireland after completing his 100th Marathon in November – the first Tipperary man to do so.  Neilie was presented with a special medal by the Marathon Club to mark his achievement and also raising over €40,000 for his chosen charity, South Tipperary Hospice Movement, over his many years running.
