MADRA is inviting everyone to lace up their shoes and start the new year on the right foot. This January, the Galway-based charity is launching an exciting 100km Challenge — a vibrant and inspiring opportunity to support its mission of caring for dogs in need.
Whether participants prefer to walk, run, or even crawl, every step taken throughout the month will help make a difference.
From January 1 to 31, individuals and teams can take on the challenge, transforming winter into a season filled with action, compassion, and camaraderie.
100km individual target
Participants can set a personal goal of completing 100km in just four weeks. With a registration fee of only €10, individuals can sign up and start tracking their progress. Those looking to elevate their impact can raise €50 or more and snag a €10 voucher for the online shop. Their determination translates into essential care for the dogs relying on MADRA.
2025km team target
For those interested in a little friendly competition, they can assemble a squad of friends, family, or colleagues. Teams can compete for the top spot on the MADRA leaderboard, while also amplifying their impact on the lives of the pawsome dogs in MADRA's care. The winning team will bask in the glory, proving that a bit of competition makes everything more fun.
Ready to go the extra mile?
MADRA encourages everyone to sign up for the 100km Challenge today and show their support. Together, they can make January a month of action and love for four-legged friends.
Participants are invited to share their journeys and encourage others to join using hashtags like #GoBlueForMADRA, #2026Challenge, and #ImGoingBlueAreYou — creating a wave of compassion online.
Together, participants can turn every stride into a step toward positive change. Lace up those shoes and join in this heart warming adventure.
