It is overall, a fast and flat course over 21.1km/13.1 miles.
As with all major city marathons, the challenge for the marathon course committee was to design a route that would maximise the runners’ experience while minimising the disruption to the public. We also wanted to make this truly a city marathon, by bringing the race to as much of the city as is possible.
Cork City Half-Marathon 2024. This is an Athletics Ireland registered event. The course has been measured by John Quigley, AIMS/World Athletics Grade A Measurer. This event is organised and hosted by Davis Events on behalf of Cork City Council, in association with Cork BHAA and Cork Athletics.
