Results & Photos of the Dublin City Marathon...Sun 30th Oct 2016



There were just over 16,800 finishers for this years Dublin City Marathon making it the biggest ever by far. The combination of moving the marathon to the Sunday from the Bank Holiday Monday and the centenary of the 1916 Rising seems to have swelled the numbers. The number of French entries are supposed to have tripled this year which shows a huge increase in international interest. It is now the 4th largest in Europe which is pretty amazing when you consider the obvious big ones are London, Berlin and Paris.



The winner of the Irish championships was Sergiu Ciobanu from Clonmel who recorded a time of 2h 17m 39s. The big suprise in the women's race was 30 year old and mother of four Laura Graham from Co.Down. She won in a time of 2h 41m 53s and has only been running for just a few years.
