The Cork BHAA held their first road race of the year on Sunday 21st of Jan 2024 with the IFF 5k in Little Island. It looks as if the wind and rain of Storm Isha had a big impact on the number of runners taking part this year with 266 crossing the finish line, a drop of about 33% on last year when almost 400 ran. Looking at the chart above, you have to go back to 2005 to find a lower number. Weather permitting, it should bounce back up again next year.

Cloyne 4km being on the same morning wouldn't have helped numbers either.
