This is a brand new 4 mile race and it's organised by Killeagh GAA club in association with Youghal AC. There used to be a road race in Killeagh many moons ago and this is a welcome addition to the calendar.
Considering that Killeagh is on the N25 Cork-Waterford road, the race should have a pretty big catchment area.
As you can see from the course map below, the race takes in a loop to the west of Killeagh. The race finishes at the entrance to the Killeagh GAA grounds which is the race HQ. There will also be changing and shower facilities here.
Note from the organisers.....The race HQ is in Killeagh GAA complex, where we will have registration on the morning of race. There are great facilities there for changing, showers and catering afterwards. There is plenty on parking at the GAA grounds and there is a walk way through an estate to the start line. We will have the race chipped timed as well.
A full preview of the course can be seen HERE
Main Event Sponsor...Motorview, Midleton
