Race notice...Bandon Half-Marathon and 10k - Sat 11th May 2012


This Half-Marathon and 10k road race is coming up in the town of Bandon in West Cork on Saturday, the 11th of May 2012. The Half-Marathon will start at 9:30am while the 10k will start 45 minutes later at 10:15am.

Considering it's relatively close proximity to Cork City, it is likely to attract a good sized field. Bandon is just 20 miles (31 kms) to the south-west of Cork City which is roughly a 35 minute drive....

Both race routes are on roads to the west of the town. The races have AAI approval and will be chip timed over an officially measured course. Bandon Athletic Club are currently fund raising for the construction of an all weather running track in the town which would be of huge benefit to the West Cork community.

Entries......
10k.....Up to the 31st of March, the entry fee is €12. After that, it goes up to €15 and the entry fee on the day is €20.

Great value for a 1/2 marathon - hopefully runners will support it in big numbers
