Back in early July, I had a post up about how the Blarney Half-Marathon was changing to a 10 mile race back in the city. Here are the details of the new John Buckley Sports Cork City 10 Miler race coming up on Sunday the 14th of September 2014...



This is the course...It will start on the Marina by the Atlantic Pond - up Centre Park Rd to roundabout - take left turn down Victoria Rd and Monahan Rd passing Kennedy Pk on rhs - continue down Monahan Rd turning left by Show Grounds back over to Center Park Rd - Turn Left back up Centre Pk Rd to complete another loop - after 2nd loop turn right on Centre Park Rd towards Marina - continue along Marina to Blackrock Village - In Blackrock Village turn left up Castle Rd and on to Lough Mahon Loop - continue around Mahon Loop turning right on to Railway Line and back up to Marina - at Marina turn left to finish at Lee Rowing Club.

Hi John, Do you know is there a limit to the number of entries for this race? Reckon it could prove quite popular now that the Charleville Half Marathon has gone up to 40euro.( I do know it was 35e for early birds ).
