Marathon Route Changes 2023

There are no major changes to this year's Marathon route, but there are two minor changes

The first is just before the Lee Tunnel, where road re-alignment has taken place. This change will be unnoticed by the cast majority of participants

The second change is at Pairc Ui Chaoimh, where the route continues directly on from the old railway line, instead of turning out onto the Marina. It drops down into the Pairc Ui Chaoimh car-park, and immediately up the access road slope, where it briefly joins the Marina.  The section just before the short climb will be coned off, separating Half-Marathon and Marathon runners, with the separation ending before the bottom of the slope

 

Half-Marathon Route

The start is on Monaghan Road, by Kennedy Park. Starting on Monaghan Road, the route goes directly east, eliminating the turns in the Albert Road area. Going around Páirc Uí Caoimh, it joins the Marathon course on the Marin, and continues along the same course

Cork City Marathon 10km

 

start cork city marathon 2022

 

 The 10k Start line is exactly the same as the start of the Full Marathon, and the Finish line is also exactly the same, so you'll get the full 'Pana' experience.

The 10k is marked in Kilometers, from 1 to 9. This course is probably the flattest 10k you'll experience anywhere in the world...Literally.


The Marathon and 10k start line is in Patrick St, outside the Savoy, and heads up Patrick St, as in previous years. Turning onto Grand Parade, the courses then separate, with the 10k turning right and heading west, along Washington St

 Immediately after turning into Grand parade, turn right onto Washington Street, and head all the way out the Western Road as far as the Sacred Heart Church/AIB


Note: There will be live traffic on your left all along here, with a Traffic Management company managing a vehicular contra-flow system during the early stages of the 10k

Running the SPR

Most of the 10k is pretty straight forward, however this section of road, both outward and returning, provides plenty of opportunity to 'run long'.  With a big field expected in the 10k, you may not have an opportunity to run the SPR (Shortest Possible Route), but you should at least try
