Operation Transformation – Ireland Lights Up & Irish Life – Every Step Counts Challenge 2024
Operation Transformation – ‘Ireland Lights Up’ 2024
Cappawhite GAA Club will be taking part in ‘Ireland Lights Up’ 2024. ‘Ireland Lights Up’ encourages GAA clubs across the 32 counties to light up and bring communities together to walk/run in a safe environment during the dark winter evenings. As always, a club participating will be showcased each week on RTE’s Operation Transformation.
The event will run every Monday and Wednesday from the 10th of January for six weeks on our brand-new community walking track. Participants of all levels are encouraged to get involved and the schedule for each group will be as follows:
Social & Families – 7pm to 8pm
Advanced (Jogging/Running) – 8pm to 9pm
Registration will take place on the night.
Irish Life – ‘Every Step Counts Challenge’ 2024
In conjunction with ‘Ireland Lights Up’, we have also registered to take part in ‘Irish Life – Every Step Counts Challenge’ 2024. Irish Life are asking clubs to track a total of 4,000km over a five-week period (Jan 10th to Feb 12th). Irish Life will be giving away a combined €30,000 in club funding and every club that reaches the target will be entered into a draw for O’ Neill’s vouchers and other prizes!
Anybody taking part is asked to download the ‘My Life’ App and follow the instructions below so that steps are recorded on your smartphone/wearable tracker (Apple Watch, Fit-Bit etc.)
Step 1: Download the ‘My Life’ App here > Download – My Life App by Irish Life.
Step 2: Once you register, go to Social > Challenges > Munster GAA > Cappawhite GAA.
Step 3: (Optional) Link your wearable tracker to the ‘My Life App’. Fitness wearables are not necessary, having your iOS/Android device in your pocket will record your steps via the Health App. Further tracking information can be found here > My Life App by Irish Life – Tracking Information
*The steps challenge is for over 18’s only, but all are welcome to come and take part in the excercising.*
With our Annual Fun Run/Walk due to take place on the 5th of February next, these events are a great way to prepare for the day, as well as socialise, keep healthy, and hopefully raise funds for the club!
