Virtual Medieval Marathon Kilkenny
2020-09-12 08:00 - 17:00
*It is with great regret that we need to inform you that this year’s event has been postponed until 2021. After much deliberation and close consultation with local authorities and Gardaí, we feel this was the best decision for all concerned. Our primary concern is you, our valued participant and we feel deeply saddened at having to reach this decision.
With the ever-changing circumstances and recent government decision deciding not to move to phase 4, we feel that it would not be fair to you the participant to reduce your overall race day experience and place your safety at risk.

However, we do have some good news. We have decided to go virtual with the event. We hope you can enjoy this virtual experience with your fellow participants and take part in the fun.

EcoTrail Wicklow
2020-09-26 08:00 - 20:00 | Bray, Wicklow, Bray, Wicklow, Ireland
International Event
Following an amazing first edition, Ecotrail Wicklow is back on the 26th of September 2020. Choose from our four distances: 18k, 29k, 45k or 80k!
Join Ireland’s largest Trail Running event through some of Wicklow’s most scenic locations!
Trail runners from around the world will experience our amazing scenery, across a selection of challenging routes; 18km, 28km, 45km and 80km.
Trails
The trails will take participants to some of Wicklow’s most scenic locations including Bray Head, Killruddery Gardens, The Great Sugarloaf, Powerscourt Waterfall, the Wicklow Way, Lough Tay viewing point and Piers Gate and all the way to Roundwood and the Vartry Reservoir.
“This event will be a truly scenic feast” says Fred Verdier from Wicklow County Tourism. “Exclusive access to the world renowned Killruddery and Powerscourt Estates will very much enhance the experience for the participants. Any running enthusiast should have this event on their ‘must do’ list”.
Distances
While the long distances are probably for the experienced trail runners, the 18 and 28k routes are ideal for road runners that want to have a try at trail running.
Ecotrail
Ecotrail was first organised in Paris ten years ago with the objective to connect the city with the outdoors with a stunning finish on the first floor of the Eiffel Tower. Ecotrail comes with a very strong eco-responsible ethos and each event is committed to reduce litter, minimise environmental impact and promote public transport. The Ecotrail concept has been recreated around various cities in Europe and is now held in Reykjavik, Oslo, Stockholm, Brussels, Geneva, Florence, Madrid and Funchal (Madeira).
“The concept of Ecotrail offers a truly international exposure and is ideal to promote the the Wicklow Outdoors brand” says Frank Curran, Chief Executive of Wicklow County Council. “The platform will give Wicklow twelve months on constant exposure through the various Ecotrail events held around Europe. Furthermore, the Eco-friendly concepts fits perfectly to our destination.”
“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Wicklow into the Ecotrail family” adds Jean Charles Perrin, Ecotrail founder and CEO of Ecotrail International. “Trail Running is one of the fastest-growing sport in the world, and Wicklow is a fantastic addition to our destinations. Having seen the beauty of Wicklow late last year, Ecotrail Wicklow might just become one of our most popular events.”

Portumna GAA Club are once again hosting 5km and 10km trail races around the beautiful Portumna Forest Park at 12 noon on Sunday 4th October. This is our third year and with 200+ runners last year we are going strong!
The 5k is on forest roads/trails and will accommodate dedicated runners but is also suitable for walkers/families/buggies. The 10k will take you deep into the forest and is a proper 10k race on mainly single-track trails between the trees, broken up by stretches of forest road ideal for passing.
The races will be on separate circuits around the forest, both well signed and marshalled. Km markers and water will be in place around the courses. Free tea/coffee for all runners/walkers at the pitch after the races.
Both races start at 12pm sharp from Portumna GAA Club.
Registration online here or in the GAA club from 11am. Online registrations will close on Saturday 3rd at 8pm. A draw will take place for a free entry for one online entrant. The races will again be followed by a BBQ and family fun-day. Prize giving at 1.30pm.

Adult entry €10 (enter here). Kids (under 16) €5, family €20. Kids or families enter at the pitch on the day. Showers available at the pitch after your run. Prizes sponsored by D Lynch & Sons Hardware. Contact Shane at 0879895143 or portumnaforesttrail@gmail.com.
