Race notice...Run West Cork 10k - Sat 17th March 2012

On Saturday the 17th of March, there is a 10k race in Ballydehob in west Cork. Located just 10 kms or so west of Skibbereen, it might be of interest to runners in that general area....



The race starts at 11am and entries on the day will be taken at the local community centre. If you are coming from Bantry or Skibbereen, you will enter Ballydehob from the east. There will be a small park on your left and you'll see the iconic old 12 arch railway bridge in the distance...

After you cross over the hump backed bridge, take the first left, drive 100 metres and the community hall is on your right. See map...
