Resurfacing of the athletics track at the Mardyke to start in early June


In previous posts, I've covered the ongoing saga of the damage to the athletics tracks at the Mardyke in Cork City...

Mardyke track shut down with immediate effect due to safety concerns - 11th March 2024

UCC issues tender for repair of the Mardyke athletics track - 23rd January 2025

UCC Mardyke have just announced that resurfacing works on the athletics track will commence on the 6th of June 2025.

I presume this will take a good few weeks so perhaps it will be open for September and the shorter evenings?

Guest Post: KILMALLOCK FOUR-MILE ROAD RACE, Friday May 16th 2025 ...by John Walshe

KILMALLOCK FOUR-MILE ROAD RACE, Friday May 16th 2025

On a warm evening for running, Declan Moore from the Bilboa repeated his victory from last year at the annual Kilmallock four-mile race.

His time of 19:54 was outside the 19:31 he ran last year but it gave him a clear advantage over runner-up (for the second year) Karl Lenihan of West Limerick (21:33), with Derek Kiely (Limerick) third in 22:35.

Breda Gaffney from Mallow was equally a clear winner of the women’s race in 23:56 ahead of Pamela Kirby (Bilboa), 24:57, with Susan Glennon from Mullingar finishing third in 25:09.

Along with his prize, Declan Moore also received the Jim Hogan Perpetual Cup in memory of the locally-born runner who famously won the 1966 European Marathon while representing Great Britain. The cup was presented by Mary Murphy, a sprightly 93-year-old sister of the late Jim who attended along with her husband Donal.

Born back in 1933, Jim Hogan changed his name from Cregan to Hogan after moving to England for work. He ran for Ireland in the marathon at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. There, he was in medal contention after tracking eventual winner Abebe Bikila for more than 20 miles before being forced to drop out in the closing stages due to severe dehydration.

In 1966, he went on to win the European Marathon title in a time of 2:20:04 – on this occasion wearing a British singlet, having declared for the UK citing indifferences and frustrations with the way in which Irish athletics was being run at the time. A number years ago a book was published on his life titled ‘The Irishman who ran for England’.

Jim Hogan passed away at the age of 81 back in January 2015. Such was the esteem in which he was held that former world 10,000m record holder Dave Bedford travelled from the UK for his funeral which took place in the little village of Athlacca.


In an interview back in the day, Bedford – who also served as Race Director of the London Marathon - was asked if he admired any particular athlete. He replied: “At one time I used to like Jim Hogan’s running, partly because he was a very controversial character – I like controversial characters – but also he had guts and said what he thought.”

A welcome return to the winners’ rostrum at Kilmallock was Mallow-man Pat Kerrigan, first in the M70 category. In only his third competitive outing for many years – apart from parkruns – Pat’s appearance brought back memories of the 1970s and 1980s when he was one of the outstanding runners in the county, very rarely outside the prizes.

And it wasn’t just on the Cork circuit as he also travelled overseas to compete at a time when many did not. One such trip was to the New York Marathon in 1982 where he ran 2:32:48, finishing just outside the first 200 of the 13,500 finishers.

Accompanying him on that occasion was his regular training and racing companion, Andy Neenan, who also ran an impressive time of 2:36:58 around the streets of New York.

Guest Post: A roof over Ireland ...by Pat Walsh

 ** A roof over Ireland **

We joked for years about Ireland would be a great country if only we could put a roof over it. Well, in the last few weeks the sunroof has been opened and we are basking in a glorious spell of weather. 

It is in weather like this that or ability to get out and enjoy life is paramount. I have attended some races recently and the feel-good factor is huge. There is a buzz, there is an energy from people who turn up to run these events and a big help knowing it won’t be wet or cold. Organisers are loving this as well and if you ever stood as a steward at a crossing in wind and rain you get my drift as the current sunshine is divine.

I was at the Cheetah 5k Run in Fota Wildlife park on Thursday night and the sense of fun was palpable. How often do you get to run around this beautiful estate? There were wild animals on both side of the fences…! They had a kids run before the main event. 

These are the days to live for, where we all mingle and get some exercise and fresh air. Of course there was winners but I think the smile on the faces of the finishers was something special.

And now to You:

Are you in a physical position to get out there and enjoy being active? 

It is vital to your health and mental well-being. There are similar events are in your area if only you look for them. You will be made feel welcome as any organisation wants to see you there but you must take the first step.

I cannot stress enough how important it is for the quality of your life NOW and in the FUTURE to keep yourself physically and mentally active. I am not talking speed or marathons, just the ability to turn up and enjoy the company of fellow strugglers in a 5k or 4-mile run. I have been beating this drum relentlessly over the past few years and I’m not going to stop. 


Fresh air and exercise are better than all the medicines in a chemist shop. 

A run chat and a cuppa chat with a training partner is better than any psychiatrist.

A smile and a hug at the end of a run is priceless.

‘Your health is your wealth’ has often been bandied about and it is true. But your health is also your ability to get the most enjoyment out of life. 

I’m off to sun myself a little more. Take care out there 

'One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singin'
Yes, you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky
'

The annual Cork BHAA Pfizers 6-mile road race was held this year on Wed 14th May 2025 on what was a lovely summer evening. Despite the fine weather, the numbers were down about 12% this year.

Top 10-mile races in Cork for the Spring of 2025

Now that Spring is over, let's have a look at the top 10-milers in Cork so far for 2025.

After a flat period, the Mallow 10-mile road race in late March grew 23% to cement its position as the top 10-mile in Co Cork.

The Cobh 10-mile at the start of April continues to grow and is now in second place.

The Kinsale 10-mile had to deferred from February to April and it now drops back to third place.

The new race was the Midleton Greenway 10-mile at the start of March and posted a respectable 540 finishers for its first outing.

It'll be interesting to see if there is a growth in the 10-mile numbers in 2026 or are we now at a peak?
