Notice: Cork BHAA PwC Anthony Reidy Memorial 5k in Cork City - Wed 10th Apr 2024


The Cork BHAA PwC 5k in Cork City is coming up on Wednesday the 10th of April 2024 at 7:30pm.

This is always a very popular race and should get a good crowd again as it's centrally located in the heart of Cork City and about as flat a 5k course as you can get. It's also the first evening race of 2024 in Cork!


First off, the race HQ is the PwC building at One Albert Quay. You can enter there on the evening of the race from 6pm. As always, it's €5 for registered BHAA runners and €10 for non-registered.

This race is officially called the PwC Anthony Reidy Memorial 5k

Course... There is a change in the route for 2024 and the 5k course will now be one big loop rather than two laps of the Centre Park Rd - Monahan Rd circuit. As can be seen from the map below, the course goes as far east as the Atlantic Pond and then does a bit of a loop on the plaza around SuperValu Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

New course marked in miles

The main thing to remember is that the start and finish lines are near Kennedy Park and they're only a short distance from the race HQ at One Albert Quay. Registration from 6pm.

As per usual, there will be refreshments post race in One Albert Quay, which is where the BHAA prize-giving will happen.
