No Hurling In September This Year Just Running! None The last date to register online for The Cat Run in Kilkenny City is Thursday, the 5th of September. The event takes place on Saturday, the 7th of September and comprises The Kilkenny Half Marathon, Gathering of the Gaels 10k and a 5k Fun Run. This is the ideal race to prepare for the Dublin City Marathon as it features the famous Johnswell Route which is a fair but testing course. The event takes place Saturday morning so why not make a weekend of it in the Marble City! See www.thecatrun.com for details.
