The Mater Foundation are calling on people across Cork to take part in the 100 miles a month challenge this September.
Participants will be invited to join an online community with fitness tips and motivation, as well as tracking each mile completed.
In the past two years, over 900 people from Cork have raised €75,000 for the Mater Public Hospital which has made a huge difference to patients.
Funds raised from the challenge will allow the Mater Foundation to provide life-saving equipment across the hospital.
Mary Moorhead, Chief Executive of the Mater Foundation said:
“Our 100 Miles in a Month challenge this September is so important. The funds raised from the challenge will directly impact patients from all across Ireland as they will ensure that we always have the funds needed to upgrade and replace life-saving equipment as it is needed. It is only with the support of the Irish public, that we are continuously able to transform patient care, saving even more lives and make a long and lasting difference to all who come through the hospital doors."
