The River Moy 1/2 Marathon takes place in
Ballina,Co.Mayo on Saturday the 25th May 2013 at 10am.
Runners and walkers of all levels are encouraged to take part. The
course starts and finishes at the Ballina Rugby Club, Creggs Rd,
Ballina, Co.Mayo.
The race is been organised to meet the very highest standards, with
chip timing for all participants, an Athletics Ireland certified
course, technical running shirts and great goodie bags which will be
jammed packed full of fantastic products for our runners to enjoy.
The half marathon route is relatively flat with a few challenging
hills along the way. Most of the half marathon will be run on roads on
either side of the banks of the River Moy. Just over one mile of the
course will take participants through Belleek Woods. There is an
excellent trail surface on this part of the scenic terrain, which is
used daily by local runners and walkers. Competitors will run in the
heart of the northwest of Ireland, along the banks of Europe’s most
famous salmon fishing river, the River Moy which will be the scenic
backdrop for most of this race.
Run Wild, Run West. All details of the event & entry can be found on
www.rivermoymarathon.ie and you can follow us on Facebook.
