The biggest 10-miler in Munster is the hugely popular John Treacy Dungarvan 10-mile road race which is organised by West Waterford AC and it's coming up on Sunday 31st January 2027.
Dates & Entries...
1) Entries opened on the 1st of Dec 2026 for Athletics Ireland club members
2) Entries for everyone including non-club runners opens on Mon 8th Dec 2026.
The entry link is https://eventmaster.ie/event/wZnLUPySRQ
Info... Note that there are 3,750 spaces for this race which is a huge amount. They expanded the entry number by 25% in 2023 to cater for the demand. This remains the level for the 2027 entries.
Remember that most runners are not members of an athletics club. Entries may open on the 1st of December for club runners but the main entry is on the 8th of December.
If you want to do this race than I'd recommend that you enter as soon as possible once the entries open.
