Old Carrick Mill

14/06/2026

What a weekend. ❤️

On World Gin Day, something very special happened in Carrickmacross.

Almost 1,000 runners joined us from across Ireland and beyond for the biggest Old Carrick Mill Gin Run we have ever hosted.

What began as an idea to celebrate our distillery, our town and the amazing people around us has grown into something far bigger than we ever imagined.

Over the last few days we have seen friendships formed, personal goals achieved, finish lines crossed, countless smiles shared and a community come together to create something truly unforgettable.

To every runner, volunteer, sponsor, local business, partner, supporter and spectator — thank you.

This event belongs to all of you.

We are incredibly proud to call Carrickmacross home and even prouder to share it with so many people who travelled to be part of the experience.

Take a look back at some of the highlights from an unforgettable World Gin Day.

We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

This feels like only the beginning.

What a day.

On World Gin Day, almost 1,000 runners joined us in Carrickmacross for the biggest Old Carrick Mill Gin Run yet.

To every single person who travelled from near and far, thank you. Whether you ran, walked, volunteered, marshalled, supported a friend, cheered from the sidelines, helped behind the scenes, or simply believed in what we are trying to build, this day would not have happened without you.

What started as an idea has grown into something much bigger than a race. It's become a celebration of community, friendship, balance and everything that makes this part of Ireland so special.

A huge thank you to our volunteers, sponsors, partners, local businesses, emergency services, photographers, entertainers, bus drivers, event crew and the countless people who gave their time to help make today possible.

We are incredibly proud of what was achieved together.

Tonight we are tired, grateful and already looking back at a day we will never forget.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

Steven & The Old Carrick Mill Gin Run Team ❤️

More than a run.

It’s the people you meet.
The moments you share.
And the smiles waiting at the finish line.
That’s what makes the Gin Run different.

MORE THAN THE FINISH LINE.

It’s the moment after.
When you lean forward,
catch your breath,
and feel the weight of what you’ve just done.

Every mile.
Every push.
Every second.

This is what it’s all about.
