The Bweeng 5k race starts approx. 500m from Race HQ. The route then heads back in the direction of HQ where the route again turns left, onto the Lombardstown Road. The first KM is extremely fast with a slight downhill fall. The course then is an out and back with the turning point at approximately 2.5k.
The middle section is fast also with one or two small inclines but because it's an out and back you gain on one side what you lose on the other. The final KM is coming off a slight fall also and last 400mtr allows for fast finish. Overall this is a course where many competitors PB.
