Over the last two years or so, the whole Marina area in Cork City has been redeveloped and the latest section to open last week is around the Atlantic Pond.
This area was really showing its age with areas next to the Pond prone to constant flooding and the paths often had large pools of standing water. There were some sections which were more like a bog with people trying to avoid getting wet.
By contrast, the new paths are nice and wide and there's plenty of options there for runners and walkers.
The lane up to Barrington's Avenue has also reopened which gives access again from the Blackrock Road.
There are some photos up on the Running in Cork Facebook page HERE
It would seem like a nice area for a 5k parkrun? ...or at least a 2k junior parkrun?
