There seems to be some confusion about the start times for the Youghal Half-Marathon & 10k on Sunday 10th Aug 2025. A visitor to the blog said that there were different start times on different sites.
Just to be sure I checked with Youghal AC and the times shown above are correct. The 10k starts at 9:30am and the half-marathon starts at 11:30am.
Youghal AC have consistently given the correct times on their Facebook page. The information that I have in the race post HERE is correct. The chip timing company has the correct info.
The Cork Athletics Board are giving the wrong start times of 9:00am and 11:00am and it's probably been like this for weeks if not months. Unfortunately, the Youghal tourist website seems to have copied this wrong information onto their own website. I don't know if the wrong times got copied elsewhere.
It seems likely that the Cork Athletics Board just copied and pasted the start times from 2024 without checking if they had actually changed.
Just note the correct times for your travel plans before and after the race.
