Half Marathons later this year / early next year ?
Hi,
Anyone know of any half marathons later this year / early next year ? I completed the Achill half in July and hope to do the one in the Phoenix Park at the end of this month and am looking for one later this year / early 2010 to keep me motivated.
Thanks
Cath

Hi there,
I am taking part in this half marathon. Looks to be pretty gruelling through the gap and dunloe and back again but the scenery should more than make up for it.

You probably already know about the Conamarathon in April.
Any one have anymore info about the half in Kilarney early 2010.
There is also the novel Inishbofin Half Marathon - www.croi.ie/events/inishbofin-half-marathon-2010 in May - tough course but great craic weekend guaranteed
Barcelona Half Marathon in February 2010 www.croi.ie/events/barcelona-half-marathon
just signed up with the heart charity Croi for two half marathons...one in barcelona on valentines weekend and one on the island of inishbofin in may next year...both look good for weekends away
like the idea of 10k along with half marathon, do they use the same course, in part anyhow ?
STRAWBERRY HALF MARATHON 27th June 2010 at 10am The Promenade, Enniscorthy.
Part of the County Wexford Strawberry Festival. Promises to be a fun day out.
Website www.strawberryhalfmarathon.com goes live early December
The Wicklow way trail towards end of March will be at least half marathon distance, possibly slightly longer (somewhere between 21 and 25k). Keep an eye on emerging calendar on imra website. A top notch scenic route if there ever was one, from Lough Tay to Johnny Foxes. Any race that finishes at a pub has to be good

10km, Half and Full marathon in Limerick on May Bank Holiday
http://www.greatlimerickrun.com/races.html
that should be good fun beautiful place to run in!
no was'nt that bad! Only joking the hill between miles 21 and 23 was a kerrymans joke:-) hill it was a cliff face!!! but what a view when you made it to the top....stunning is all I can say and you finish on a lovely downhill. I've signed up for the ultra this year so it can't have been that bad. Like Connemara the organisation was faultless and the atmosphere magic. Best days running ever!
Hi Seb, thinks thats another one for my calander! yvo
Bay Run 2010 is on May Bank Holiday weekend in Bantry/Glengariff.
I think the registration window closes on 31 march.
looks like a great run along the banks of the moy and through belleek woods on may 16th
I did my first half marathon in Dingle in 2010 and the scenery and atmospehere and weather were perfect, great experience. Very hilly though. I am now looking for a flat half marathon to do a PB, am signed up for Bath on March 6th but anyone know of any in Ireland that are flat and fast.
kildare half is flat.....
To Anonymous looking for a flat half marathon, check out www.midlandshalfmarathon.com in Portlaoise on 1st Aug. It's not completely flat, but not far off. (Check the gradient on the route section, one hill only really.)
There was a public meeting to take place in Killarney on 6th of Jan to discuss final plans for a full marathon also with the local business people and residents of the area just wondering does anyone know the outcome of this and if it is going to go ahead ?
Anyboy got any news on the propsed March 19th Full Marathon in Killarney ....



Blarney half Marathon is on Sunday 13th Sept if you are interested.
