Results & Photos of the Cork City Marathon - 31st May 2026

The 2026 Cork City Marathon was held on Sunday the 31st of May on what turned out to be a cool and overcast day, perfect for running. 

The numbers in the full and half-marathon were up this year while the 10k seems to be down a bit, we'll look at the numbers in a future post once things have died down.

Adrian has are over 6,000 photos. You should do a search with a bib number to find a particular runner. The photos are from the 1st mile of the marathon, then opposite the Opera House coming from the Blackpool side, then the 10k on North Main St, a few on Grand Parade and the rest on Washington St near the Courthouse. They stop around 4hrs 10mins in the marathon.

Weather forecast for the 2026 Cork City Marathon

As we get nearer to the 2026 Cork City Marathon, the weather forecast is looking pretty good. While spectators might like to see blue skies and sunshine, runners want to see cool overcast conditions.

As the image shows above, it should be mostly dry with the risk of an occasional shower. The temperature should be around the mid-teens which is ideal considering that it's the last day of May and it could just be as easily be in the mid-twenties.

There's a breeze from the south-west but nothing significant.

Update Sat 30th May: It now looks as if it might be a be a bit warmer in the late morning with some broken sunshine. The temperature is 14 to 20 deg C. There is still a risk of showers but nothing persistent.

If you're doing the marathon, half or 10k, make sure not to overdress. Think singlet or short sleeve top. If you feel a bit cold at the start line then that's about right. Once the race starts, you'll be trying to stay cool after a few kms.

Training programmes for the 2026 Cork City Marathon, Half-Marathon & 10k

The Cork City Marathon is coming up on Sunday 30th May 2026. I have a standard 14-week training programme starting on the 23rd of February which costs €112. 

The weekly programme is tailored for each individual and requires weekly feedback by email. It's suitable for anyone looking to do their first marathon or for someone who wants to improve their times.

Results & photos of the Cork City Marathon - Sun 1st June 2025

There were approximately 9400 finishers in this years Cork City Marathon event... 1945 in the full marathon, 3804 in the half-marathon and 3647 in the 10k.

The weather turned out to be a bit wetter than forecast but it was a case of light passing showers rather than anything serious. If anything, it kept things a bit on the cool side in contrast to some of the previous years where the sunshine and heat was an issue.

*****

CONDOLENCES: A woman has died during today’s Cork City Half-Marathon. It is understood the woman in her 20s, was treated by emergency services at the scene at around 1pm after she became unwell after finishing the event but died some time later. 

A statement from Cork City Council said: “Cork City Council is deeply saddened to confirm that a participant in the Cork City Marathon has tragically passed away. The person was attended to immediately by the emergency services on the scene. Our deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of the deceased.”

May she rest in peace.

Weather forecast for the 2025 Cork City Marathon

 As we get closer to Sunday the 1st  of June, we can get a better idea of what the weather might be like.

At the end of this week, there is an area of low pressure nearby so the weather is changing a lot with weather fronts passing through. On race day, the weather is likely to be broken clouds with some sunshine with a reasonably strong westerly breeze.

As the day goes on, the cloud cover will increase and there is a chance of some showers.

For an event at the start of June, the forecast is about as good as it gets for a running event. The chance of rain is low and the temperature will be in the mid teens as opposed to 20 deg C plus.

For marathon runners, the wind will be into their face as they head west from Mahon to Bishopstown. The wind will be behind all runners for the end of the full, half and 10k.

As we're still a few days out, things may well change a bit but it's looking pretty good for now.

Training programme for the 2025 Cork City Marathon

The Cork City Marathon is coming up on Sunday 1st June 2025. I have a standard 18-week training programme starting on the 29th of January which costs €144. 

The weekly programme is tailored for each individual and requires weekly feedback by email. It's suitable for anyone looking to do their first marathon or for someone who wants to improve their times.

There are also 14,16 & 18 week programmes for the half-marathon.

If interested, send an email to johndesmondrunning AT gmail DOT com

If anyone is interested in training for any other race then you can find details on the coaching page... https://corkrunning.blogspot.com/p/coaching.html

Results & Photos of the 2024 Cork City Marathon - Sun 2nd June 2024

It looks as of the forecast was more or less spot on, blue skies and sunshine in the morning with some cloud rolling in around noon. The reality is that it was more hazy and broken sunshine than complete cover so in the end, it was another hot Cork City marathon. Let's hope they had enough water out on the course unlike last year.

In terms of numbers, it looks as if the number of finishers is up for the full marathon and half-marathon and down for the 10k. Between the three events, there are about 9000 finishers.
