The Cloyne 5k takes place in East Cork on Wednesday, the 5th of August at 8pm. As races go, this is a reasonably flat and fast course. There are no real hills as such, just a few short sections where the road rises by a few metres at most. Outside of the Marina course in Cork City, it doesn't get much flatter. If you want to try for a fast 5k time, then this is the one to do.
If you are coming from the Cork city, then Cloyne is just a 22-25 minute drive from the Jack Lynch tunnel. Considering the number of runners within say a 30 minute drive of it, the race is likely to attract a large crowd.
From the organisers...In order to ease the pressure on the night of the Cloyne 5k Road Race on 5th August we have decided to do pre-registrations the Tuesday night beforehand in two venues:
Midleton Community Centre from 6-8:00pm AND in Cloyne National School from 6-8:00pm.
On race day we will open registrations from 3:00pm in the School hall.
