The course
5 mi, 39 m of climb.
Raheny Shamrock AC's five-mile road race, held on the last Sunday of January with its traditional 3pm start, and one of the biggest road races in Ireland (a World Athletics Label race). It starts and finishes at All Saints Park in Raheny: out by Watermill Road, Wades Avenue and the Howth Road, down Sybil Hill and Mount Prospect Avenue to the seafront on James Larkin Road, then back up Watermill Road to the finish in the park. A fast, mostly flat course on closed suburban roads. Entries sell out early; the juvenile races run an hour before. Route map and elevation profile below.
