JOIN A VIRTUAL GOAL MILE ORGANISE A GOAL MILE EVENT Share your #GOALMile Powered by Curator.io History of GOAL Mile GOAL Mile was established in 1982 when our late chairperson and international athlete, Noel Carroll, asked local people and their families to run a mile at The Phoenix Park on Christmas morning for GOAL. Much to everyone’s delight, more than 250 people turned up. The following year saw the event move to Belfield, University College Dublin. It is now one of the most popular and longstanding fundraisers in Ireland! This year more than 150 GOAL Mile events will take place around the country and thousands more participants will take part virtually around the world. With new locations announced each year we have come a long way since that first Mile in 1982 – raising millions for GOAL’s life-saving work. We want to say ‘Thank you’ to every single person who has organised, run or walked a mile for GOAL. We hope to see you again this year!
