Event notice...Bandon Half-Marathon & 10k - Sat 3rd May 2014


The Bandon Half-Marathon & 10k is still some time off but it might be one to consider. The Bandon Half-Marathon and 10k races will be on Saturday the 3rd of May 2014.

It's worth noting however that the cheapest entry fee of €20 for the Half-Marathon and €12 for the 10k is before the 31st of March.

One of the main reasons for these two races is to raise funds for the long term goal of building a proper athletics track which will be a great asset for future athletes in the West Cork area.

From Bandon Athletic club...
Bandon Athletic Club, in a joint venture with Bandon Rugby Club, are again organising two races on the running calendar for 2014. The Half Marathon and 10k races are taking place on Saturday 3rd of May 2014, ideally positioned 4 weeks before the Cork City full and half marathons.

The Half marathon gets under way at 9.30am and the 10k begins at 10.15am and both races have AAI approval. Online entries are now open for both events with early entry prices on offer until March 31st.

Early entry fee up to March 31st for the half marathon is €20 and €25 after that date. On the day entry cost for the half marathon is €30. Early entry fee up to March 31st for the 10k is €12 and €15 after that date. On the day entry cost for 10k is €20. Further information at www.bandonhalfmarathon.com

It will be difficult for the Bay Run (Glengarriff to Bantry half marathon) to compete with entry fees like that for same distance, same weekend and similar area.
