This 10 km & 5km road race is coming up in Bishopstown on Sunday, the 21st of October 2018 at 9:30am.

1) There aren't that many 10k races really on the calendar. Loads of 5k and 5 mile races but fast 10k courses are a bit thin on the ground.
2) In Bishopstown in Cork City so it is central to a lot of people.
3) Dry-fit top included in the early entry fee for both the 5k and 10k.

Notice...Rebel Run 10k & 5k in Cork City - Sun 22nd Oct 2017

This 10 km & 5km road race is coming up in Bishopstown on Sunday, the 22nd of October 2017 at 9:30am.

This is going to be of interest to a lot of people for a number of reasons.....
1) There aren't that many 10k races really on the calendar. Loads of 5k and 5 mile races but fast 10k courses are a bit thin on the ground.
2) In Bishopstown in Cork City so it is central to a lot of people.
3) Dry-fit top included in the early entry fee for both the 5k and 10k.

Details...
Early Bird entry fee:
Cork Rebel Run 10K - €15 (includes souviner t-shirt, goody bag, chip timing, bib number)
