BOTH Kedrah Castle and Kedrah House Stud are strong players in the sport horse industry but only one branch of the Meagher family in Tipperary is involved in the world of cross-country running. While veterinary surgeons Tom and Patrick Meagher of Kedrah House Stud were credited with hosting the Mayhem 5k/10k run in these pages, it was of course Pat Meagher in Kedrah Castle just across the road who was at the helm of the event.

The cross-country schooling and eventing venue has been modified to allow for human runners, with the addition of some challenging climbing, swimming and rope-swinging that even some of the toughest event riders might baulk at.
