PLOD is the ultimate team endurance challenge. If you are looking for adventure, have decided it’s time to live life to the full, or just want to do something different in 2012, then this is the event for you!
PLOD is not for the faint hearted or the ill-prepared. We have designed a gruelling course that will probably push you further than you have ever been pushed before.
Set in the magical Mountains of Mourne, this PLOD is one of the most gruelling routes on Northern Irish terrain. Starting at midnight out of Tollymore Forest Park, many challenges lie ahead including the option to summit three peaks. With the beautiful Lough Shannagh also on your route, this tough and well supported event will test you to the limit.
Perfect for groups, friends or work colleagues. Companies looking to develop team bonding will benefit, and for those seeking an out-and-out challenge against their competitors, this event will deliver on all fronts.
We are all about pushing you to the limit. Join us to improve the quality of life for thousands of sick and vulnerable babies and children. We are able to achieve our goals by helping you achieve yours.
