There no changes to this year's marathon route, so it's exactly the same as last year, 2017. Several changes were made for last ye ar's routes, primarily due to avoidance, as far as possible, of churches, o f all demoninations. For previous marathons, church services hasn't a n issue, however changing the Marathon to a Sunday gave rise to a lot of lo gistical headaches, including church services and lots of sporting events.< /span>
T he first major change to the Marathon comes in the first three miles, where the section between Christy Ring Bridge and North Gate Bridge and back aga in to Christy Ring. Instead the route heads North over Christy Ring Bridge and out to Blackpool on the regular route. The route then remains the same as before, until the section between 18 and 21 miles, where radical changes take place.
The second major changes comes the 18 Mile mark. After turning onto Lower Friar's Walk, by the former Manhattan Bar, the course turns righ t, onto Connolly Road, where previously it continued straight on to Ballyph ehane Church - a location that had to be avoided this year. After tur ning onto Connolly Road, the route continues straight on, across Pearse Roa d, and up the hill, passing Tory Top Park, after which it turns immediately left.
At the North end of Tory Top Park, it turns right and immediately lef t - probably best described as "a jiggle" - into Reendowney Place and on through Clareville, and left onto Pouladuff Road. It rejoins the old co urse at Pearse Road, where it turns right towards, and past, the Lough.
The third change comes after passing the Lough. Continuing up Hartland's Avenue , the route now crosses Glasheen Road, onto Dorgan's Road, before turning l eft onto Magazine Road, right again, onto St. Francis Avenue. At the end of St. Francis Avenue, there is a left turn onto College Road, by Brookfield, before turning right, into Orchard Road.
At the Orchard Road - Wilton Road junction, there is another "jiggle", crossing Wilton Road, into Farranlea R oad, on to Farranlea Park, before rejoining the old course again at the Mod el Farm Road - Farranlea Park junction.
The final major change comes in the final mile. After crossing North Gate Bridge, the course heads directly up North Main Street, as far as Washington St., where it turns left. Pas sing the 26 Mile mark, at the main door to St. Augustine's church, the rout e turns left onto Grand Parade, before swinging immediately right into Patr ick's St, for the final run-in. The finish is at exactly the same poi nt as previous years, but the approach is from the opposite direction.
After the first 1.75 Miles or so, the Half-Marathon joins th e Marathon course at approx. 14.5 Miles. The major change is a comple tely new start. This year, 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, which, no doubt, will be warmly welcomed by those who ran in last year's event.
