New 2k Junior parkrun in Mallow starts Sun 11th June 2023


In previous posts, I outlined how new 2km Junior parkruns were going to start up in 2023 in Togher, Dunmanway and Mallow. It has now been announced that the new Mallow Castle Junior parkrun will start on Sunday 11th June 2023 at 9:30am.

Just to recap, junior 2km parkruns are for 4-14 year old's, are held every Sunday at 9:30am and are free.

The 2km course is near Mallow Castle, right alongside the River Blackwater and is flat.


Course description... "The event starts on the riverbank in Mallow Castle Park, after the first footbridge east of Mallow town bridge. The course heads east over a footbridge, followed by two anti-clockwise laps through the park on a mixture of concrete and unsealed paths , returning back over the footbridge to the start point."
