Cill na Martra is located just south of the Macroom to Killarney road so this one might be of interest to runners from both Cork and Kerry.
The route for the run certainly isn't flat ;o) but it's on nice quiet country roads...
Anyone familiar with the Cork / Killarney road will know of the Mons Bar...the turn off for Cill na Martra is there...
