The annual Crosshaven 8km road race is coming up on Wednesday the 27th of April 2016 at 7:30pm. Last year, it got over 300 runners on what was a lovely sunny evening. Considering that Crosshaven is only a short drive from Cork City and Carrigaline, it should get a good turnout again this year.
The entry fee is €12 and you can pre-register HERE
You can also enter on the day for €15. The race has an Athletics Ireland licence and has been properly measured by Jones Counter. All proceeds go towards the local primary school.
As for the race course, it is a little different in that it is 8kms as opposed to 5 miles so it's like the GR8KM in Mitchelstown in that respect. The race starts in the square...up to Camden....back down....out past the Yacht Club...out the road towards Carrigaline....and back to the finish in the square.
If it's a sunny evening then it should be a great spot for a race. More info on...
