Cork Athletics Registration Figures - January 31st 2024

Record Cork Athletics Registration Figures - January 31st 2024

cork registrations january 2024

 

January end-of-month registrations for Cork Athletics stand at a record 5,313, an increase of 465 (9.6%) on the January 2023 figure of 4,848

There was a big move to register members, after Athletics Ireland stated that there would be no 'grace period' at the beginning of the 2024 year. This move appears to have led to many registrations coming in earlier than in previous years. So far, for February, it looks as if the increase is not being maintained, and month end numbers are expected to be around the same as in February 2023

Clubs are reminded that new members may 'try out' the club for a few weeks, after which they MUST be registered, or they will NOT be covered by Athletics Ireland insurance

Any athlete, coach, official, or any member acting in any capacity, who remains unregistered is NOT covered by Athletics Irelands insurance, for ANY purpose whatsoever, including training and/or competition


Current Position - February 18th 2024

As of this evening, a further 833 (15.67%) have been registered since January 31st.  883 (14.37%) of these are listed as New Registrations

Press Release

Thinking of running the Cork City Marathon this June 2?


With 16 weeks to go, here are some training tips and advice

Registrations are open for the Full Marathon, Half-Marathon and 10k run, which is back due to popular demand

#CorkCityMarathon24 #EveryMileisaMemory

Are you thinking of running this year’s Cork City Marathon on June 2nd, 2024?  

 Led by Cork City Council, the 2024 event promises to be an even better running experience this year with lots of race improvements. Registrations are now open for the Marathon, Half Marathon, and the 10K Race, which is back due to popular demand!

 With scenic courses winding through the picturesque streets of Cork City and suburbs, participants can expect a memorable and challenging experience - where every mile will make lasting memories

With over 11,000 entries in 2023, the Cork City Marathon continues to grow each year, attracting participants from Ireland and around the globe. From the USA to Asia, runners flock to Ireland, contributing to the international flavour of this remarkable event

cork city marathon launch 2014 23Race Director Eamon Hayes (back row, centre)

Race Director Eamon Hayes has the following advice for those thinking of taking part, whether it’s the full Marathon, Half-Marathon or 10k

  1.     Make a training schedule that you’ll stick to.  A 16 week training plan for Cork City Marathon is now live on ‘The Runners Diary’ podcast and blog series by Brian Ahern and Damian Kenneally, which is also being shared on @corkcitymarathon social media channels.  These will be helpful for first time and seasoned runners in building up to race day. We will also have 12 week schedules available shortly on our website for the Marathon, Half Marathon and 10k
  2.     Don’t forget strength and conditioning: Doing one core-building training session a week will improve your strength, posture, running form and, as a result, stamina. Bodyweight exercises are ideal, as they build strength and balance like planks, side planks, burpees, press-ups, squats, leg presses and split squats
  3.     Fuel your body: Often overlooked, nutrition is a key part of training and recovery
  4.     A flexible schedule. Things happen and schedules change.. Work around work and family commitments and holidays. Missing a few sessions won’t put you off track. The most important thing is not to panic.  Make it work for your lifestyle, be it running home for work, or taking the kids on their bikes while you run
  5.     Stretching: Stretching after every run is just as important as the run itself in terms of recovery and injury prevention
  6.     Listen to your body and slow down or stop when something feels off.  Include plenty of rest days, as they're crucial to make sure you don't overtrain and pick up an injury
  7.     Test your gear before the big day: shoes, clothing, belt bags, energy gels, protein bars - anything you plan to put on or in your body
  8.     Find a running group - having company will motivate you and you’ll pick up tips from your companions.  Keep an eye on our social media channels for groups in your area
  9.     Visualise. Imagine the finish line during your training and it will help you to keep going!
  10.     Try to enjoy the experience; You’ll have as many memories of your training as the big day itself and whether you’re doing a 10k for the first time or looking to improve your marathon time, it’s an incredible adventure!

Enhancements

Enhancements this year include additional water stations and improved distribution channels, higher spec race t-shirts, and perhaps most exciting of all: a brand-new medal design crafted from recycled metal (set to be revealed soon!), aligning with the event's sustainability goals

Spectators play an equally vital role, unleashing creativity with motivational signs, cheers, and applause that resonate throughout the course. Live music provided by members of the Cork School of Music and play activity with Let’s Play Cork will also add to public and participant enjoyment of the event. The city can anticipate a significant economic boost, with hotels booking up for the weekend and a vibrant festival atmosphere along the race routes

 The Lord Mayor of Cork, Cllr. Kieran McCarthy said: “The Cork City Marathon is renowned for its inclusivity, bringing together runners and walkers from different nationalities and backgrounds, including Cork’s very own Sanctuary Runners, along with wheelchair athletes, and fitness enthusiasts This is an incredible event for the people of Cork, not only is an event that promotes health and wellbeing, but it also provides a real economic benefit to the city. I want to acknowledge the incredible work of the organisers and volunteers and wish all those competing the best with their preparations in the coming weeks

The day is for all Corkonians, from young to old. Get involved in one of the city’s largest gatherings of people - all in the aid of sport, well-being, charities, comradeship and much more. Walk, jog, or run in this year’s Marathon!“

Eamonn Hayes, Race Director said, "We’re hoping 2024 will be Cork’s best Cork City Marathon yet. The running community's high level of involvement in organising the event, coupled with our experienced team and commitment to continued improvement, makes this a great year to participate or support. The Cork City Marathon is not just a significant race on the athletics calendar but is also a great showcase for our city. The event will yet again provide a cultural and economic boost to the local area and we are really calling on Cork locals to take pride in their city’s marathon by coming out in support of the event, the athletes and Cork!!"

Management of this year’s event is back under the auspices of Cork City Council and expert partners with significant input from influential members of the running community. The main organising committee features 14 runners, with many more providing insights to ensure that the 2024 event is better than ever. This highly experienced team is dedicated to ensuring a seamless and enjoyable event for participants with a minimum of disruption to the city

2024 Marathon Details

The 2024 Cork City Marathon will kick off at 8:15 am for the full marathon, 10:15am for the half marathon and 8:45am for the 10k race (assembly for this race will commence at 8:15am at Merchant’s Quay). As a full member of AIMS, the Cork marathon is World Athletics certified. Make sure to mark the date in your diary as it promises to be an unforgettable day for both participants and spectators.  To register for the Marathon, Half Marathon, or 10K, and for more information on this year’s event, please visit www.corkcity.ie/cork-city-marathon-2024 and follow @corkcitymarathon on social media

• has the potential to increase levels and frequency of participation in recreational walking, jogging, and running in the local community
• has the potential to develop into a sustainable, longer-term participation in the club for those involved

The funding can be used to support a wide range of costs that are for the specific purpose of the Fit4Life programme:
• Equipment and facilities to increase participation in the programme
• Coach development and training supports (i.e. Coach Education course, such as Athletics Leader, and Fit4Life Leader)
• Coaching supports (i.e. nominal fee for coaches delivering the programme)
• Resources and merchandise (i.e. Hi-Viz vests, Fit4Life finishers top, etc.)
• Marketing and promotion (i.e. flyers, posters, local signage, advertising, and paid promotion)

Through this initiative, we hope that clubs will:

• Inspire more people to get involved in Athletics
• Introduce Athletics (walking, jogging, and running) to people in your community
• Create an inclusive, safe, and enjoyable environment for all participants to participate in
• Increase membership in your club by transitioning participants to the club upon completion

Successful clubs will be required to:

• Use the Athletics Irelands online booking system for your Fit4Life programme. Clubs will be permitted to charge up to €40 per participant. The takings from the programme will be for the host club
• Provide an update to AI on the success of the programme and the numbers participating
• Provide content for AI and AI Fit4Life social channels to celebrate the programme and champion the work of your club

Athletics Ireland will:

• Provide insurance cover for the programme, up to a maximum of 100 participants (Ratio is 1 Fit4Life leader/coach to 12 participants)

Darragh McElhinney runs Second Fastest Irish Indoor 3000m - Feb 2024

Darragh McElhinney Runs 7:39.92 Indoor 3000m

Metz, France

Saturday February 3rd 2024


The Metz Moselle Meeting, a World Athletics Indoor Tour Silver event produced some stunning running, particularly from an Irish point of view, with Sarah Healy running an Irish Women's 3000m record of 8:36.06, behind Ethiopian Merut Meshesha, who ran a 2024 World Lead 8:28.46

Later Darragh McElhinney, Bantry AC, finished third in 7:39.92, to come within 1.33 secs of Alastair Cragg's 7:38.59 sec National Record from 2004, yet only a few hours later, in Brighton, USA, Brian Fay, 7:40.09, and Andrew Coscoran 7:40.36 also came close - a sure sign that Cragg's record is set to tumble.  In the same race as Darragh, Nick Griggs, finishing in 6th place, broke Darragh's own Irish Under-23 record, with 7:45.57

The Men's 3000m had a big field, and Darragh featured prominently, after a comfortable start - he was 9th after 800m, but steadily moved up the field, going through 1600m, in 4th place and 4:04. Then 3rd after 1800m, 2000m in 5:05 and 4th, 3rd again at 2200m, in 5:37. He then laid down a marker, moving into 2nd after 2400m, in 6:10, and went to the front after approx. 2500, going through 2600 in 6:40 and 2800 in 7:10


Darragh held the lead until half-way down the back straight for the last time, when local favourite Yann Schlub, put in a powerful surge, to finish in 7:38.41. Italian Pietro Arese tried to go with Schlub, but couldn't live with Schlub's pace. Nevertheless, Arese found another gear towards the end of the final bend, and came within 0.01 sec of catching Schlub right on the line, setting an Italian record in the process

Athletics Ireland Release

McElhinney goes Second All-Time (Indoors) as Griggs Breaks McElhinney's Irish U23 3,000M Record

 

Darragh McElhinney produced an outstanding 3,000m performance, at the World Indoor Tour Meet, in Metz this evening, clocking a 7:39.92 personal best to go second on the all-time list indoors. The Bantry athlete, who finished third in today’s race, moves into second on the Irish all time list indoors ahead of the legendary Frank O'Mara. The time also edges him ever closer to the Alistair Cragg’s 3,000m indoor record of 7:38.59 which has stood since 2004

Nick Griggs was also in action in the same race in Metz, ironically claiming McElhinney’s U23 3,000m record with a personal best of his own. The Candour Track Club athlete crossed the finish in 6th place in a time of 7:45.57

Now that the spring 10-mile races are getting underway, the following is last year’s list of the fastest times over this popular distance for men (under 55:00) and women (under 65:00)

It shows the time (gun), name/club/category, the race and finishing position, along with the date. Where an athlete appears more than once, just the surname is used after the initial listing

Far and away, the quickest time from 2023 is the 47:11 achieved by Efrem Gidey at Kilcock, a race he won by over five minutes. The year before, Jake O’Regan’s 48:40 topped the list. Aoife Cooke, the fastest in 2022, with 54:19 at Dungarvan, again leads the way with her 54:50, from the tougher Cobh race

In 2022, 127 times for men appeared under 55 minutes, along with 117 for women under 65 minutes. Last year, the corresponding figures were 147 for men, and 106 for women

Dungarvan, with 22 times under 55:00, saw the highest standard race amongst the men, with the next highest being the Irish Runner race (which incorporated the National Championship), on 19

The West Waterford race also saw the most women under 65:00, with 15 performances, with the Irish Runner event again second, on 13

As usual, any additions or corrections are welcome and can be made on the comments section wherever this list appears
