Cork Athletics Registration Figures - August 31st 2019

Cork Athletics Registration Figures - August 31st 2019

 

cork registrations august 2019

July end-of-month registrations for Cork Athletics stand at 7,415. All of Cork Athletics 56 registered clubs now have members registered.

The August figures are marginally down on the August 2018 corresponding figure of 7,468, which were slightly behind the August 2017 figure of 7,489. So, the spectacular growth seen in 2015, 2016 & 2017 has not been maintained.  The corresponding 2016 figure was 6,926, while the August 2015 figure was 6,224. The September registrations should see the usual annual surge, ahead of the Cross-Country season.



Two clubs clubs remain with less than the required minimum of ten (10) registered members to constitute a valid registered club. While this may not appear to be a major issue for them - Club Members may still compete in championships - it does constitute some difficulties, e.g. they may not vote on a County Board matter and, perhaps of more significance to some clubs, they may not apply for Race permits as a registered club (at least until they have at least 10 registered members)

 

As always, 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

 

Feb 1: 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.

The Registration facility is open


Any club having difficulties logging into the registration system. If your club is in this position, please This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. 01-8869933

Senior Registrations

Senior athletes are, or should include, the 'Elite' members - this is the age group from which our Provincial, National and International athletes will emerge.  The numbers in this age group, from those born before 2000, and aged under 35, continues to be disappointing low, particularly in the early 20's ages.  While athletics is not the only sport experiencing this issue, clearly Cork Athletics and Athletics Ireland urgently needs to formulate a strategy to attract and retain athletes in this age range

Outlook for Charleville Half-Marathon 2019

Strong Fields Assembled for Charleville International Half-Marathon 2019

Charleville Half-Marathon Weather Outlook

charleville weather september 15th 2019
 Sunday's weather is looking pretty good. No rain (as long as that 'stuff' heading for Donegal and the northwest stays there!) and light winds. The downsides are temperatures of 15C or 16C and high humidity.  Sunblock might be an idea, though UV index of 3 or 4 is predicted.

 

The Fields

 As always, North Cork AC have assembled strong fields in both men & women. In the men's race, lots of names stick out, notably Mick Clohisey (Raheny Shamrock AC), Sean Hehir (Unattached) and Freddy Keron-Sittuk (Raheny Shamrock AC). The unknown is Spaniard Cornelio Velazquez-Castillejo (Training Market). Cork interest will probably focus on Alan O'Brien (Eagle AC ), Michael Morgan (St Finbarrs AC) and John Shine (Leevale AC)


The Women's field is headed by Aoife Cooke, who is mandatorily running as 'Unattached' for September, following her recent transfer from Youghal AC to Eagle AC. She will be chased by several high-calibre athletes, including Angela McCann (Clonmel AC), Una Britton (Kilcoole AC) and Jill Hodgins (Leevale AC). As with the men's field, the women's race also has a Spanish 'wild-card' in Lola Saura Lujan (Amigos de La Piramide)

Echo Mini-Marathon 2019 - 8000 Entries Limit Set

Limit of 8,000 Entries set for Echo Mini-Marathon 2019

Centre Park Road, Cork

38th echo cork womens mini marathon 2019 entry limit

  

38th Echo Cork Womens Mini-Marathon 2019 – 8,000 Limit

This year, there has been a massive increase in Mini-Marathon entries, with numbers to date up almost 50% on 2018.  As Race Organisers, we need to ensure that we can supply a medal, Race Bag, fruit and bars to all finishers

We are committed to growing the event, both in terms of participant numbers and the carnival atmosphere surrounding the event, while ensuring that everyone has an enjoyable experience.  A consequence of this is that we can only increase entry numbers in stages, each year. This year we have set a maximum entry limit of 8,000.

 

Enter 38th Echo Cork Women's Mini-Marathon

 

 

  • To keep within the 8,000 limit, the final date for receipt of postal entries is Monday next, September 16th
  • Online registration will close automatically, once the 8,000 limit has been reached
  • If the 8,000 barrier has not been reached, the online entry system will close at Midnight, on Friday September 20th
  • Unless the event has already sold-out on-line, walk-up entries will also be taken at the Mini-Marathon Race Desk, at Tesco, Wilton Shopping Centre, Cork, at the following times:


•    Thursday, September 19th, between 10am - 8pm


•    Friday, September 20th, between 10am - 4pm


•    Saturday, September 21st, between 10am - 4pm

 

If not already sold-out, entries MAY be taken on race day, Sunday September 22nd, at the Race Office on Victoria Road.

NB: It is probable that the event will sell-out before Sunday September 22nd

 

This year, the Echo Cork Women’s Mini-Marathon has been approved as a prestigious 5 ***** event under European Athletics Running4All Classification

Measures that have been introduced, in the past few years, with the intention of streamlining the event and make things more enjoyable for all, include:


•    Time Zones in the start area - To ensure that everyone, runner, jogger and walker alike, has a smooth start to the race


•    Streamlined Start – Everyone now starts on Centre Park Road


•    Streamlined Finish – The Timing Chip records your finish time as you pass under the finish gantry, after which you enter Kennedy Park and savour the atmosphere – No more queuing to have your details taken!


•    Chip Timing – Every participant’s number has an electronic timing chip embedded in it, so your time only starts when YOU actually cross the start line.

We hope that you like what we're doing to improve the event and make it both memorable and enjoyable.  

....and we are sorry that we simply CANNOT go beyond the 8,000 entries limit this year.

The Athletics Ireland National Marathon Championship will be incorporated in the SSE Airtricity Dublin Marathon, on Sunday October 27th 2019

 

Listings

Athletics Ireland has released the initial listing of entries in the National Marathon Championship.  The listings were supplied by Dublin BHAA, organisers of the Dublin City Marathon, and were drawn from the online entries inputted by competitors.

As with every other year, the entry list is strewn with errors: Many entrants omitted to select their club from the dropdown list, others selected the wrong club from the listing. Consequently it is vital that all athletes, and clubs, check the listings, to ensure that all their members are included, and, where there are errors or omissions, notify Athletics Ireland Competition Section

NB: Every year this listing causes much anguish and consternation, with clubs and individuals omitted.  When entering the Marathon, athletes can select their Athletics Ireland club from the drop-down listing. ...and that is where the problems start!

 

The club listing is initially formed from a list of 'current' clubs, supplied by Athletics Ireland. Unfortunately the list supplied to the marathon organisers is sometimes not up-to-date, so newer clubs, or clubs whose names have changed are often missing.

 

 

Athletics Ireland National Marathon Championship Entry List (PDF File)

If you have entered the Dublin Marathon, and your name does not appear on the National Marathon Championships List, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or you may not be included in the National Championships Results.


Team and Individual Declaration

The list is, in itself, of little consequence.  Each team, and individual *MUST* be separately declared for the Championships. Once declared all entries will be checked for current Athletics Ireland registration.  Only registered athletes will be eligible for the Championship.

A partial check of the Cork listings suggest that quite a few of those on the list are unregistered - one club listed has over double the entries as it has registered members!   So....get the skates on everyone!.....register your athletes


Athletics Ireland National Marathon Championship Team Declaration  (PDF File)
NB: This is 2017 Form -2019 Form will be linked when available
The Athletics Ireland National Marathon Championship Team Declaration form must submitted to Athletics Ireland by Friday October 18th. Contact Athletics Ireland Competition Section

 

Gender

Men comprise 57.6% of the field, with the women's share coming to 42.3%

 

Number of Championship Entries by Club

At this point in time, there are 2,728 athletes, from 228 clubs on the list. Marathon Club of Ireland, Raheny Shamrock AC, with 73 entries, head the list, followed by Tullamore Harriers AC, on 64.  The leading Cork club is Eagle AC, with 30 athletes, followed by Watergrasshill AC (29), Mallow AC (24) and St' Finbarrs AC (21)

Cork Club Representation

There are 302 Cork Athletes, from 38 Cork Clubs, so just approx. 2/3rds registered Cork clubs are represented. Eagle AC (30), Watergrasshill AC (29), Mallow AC (24) and St' Finbarrs AC (21) have the largest Cork representations, and, with a strong Cork pedigree in the Marathon Championship, no doubt, all four clubs will be chasing various Team and Individual honours.

This month sees one of the major events in the Cork Athletics calendar, the Echo Women's Mini-Marathon  This event is the key fundraising event for Cork Athletics, and also for it's member clubs.  Cork County Board is asking all clubs to provide help in the form of stewards, officials, and other help. 

This is a Major fundraiser for Cork Athletics, without which the Board could not provide such as T&F, Road and XC Championships, Coaching Courses, Equipment & Safety Grants, organise Cork teams of all categories, and a myriad of other events & activities. It is also the source of funding for Cork Athletics facilities, particularly it's grounds at Riverstick, and, going forward, will, it is hoped, fund other future facilities.

 

This event is our Life-Blood - Please Help!

The Echo Womens Mini-Marathon is organised and hosted by Cork Athletics, and sponsored by Cork's Echo, for the 38th year. The proceeds help Cork Athletics fund its competitions and Championships. In addition it enables the Board to organise training, in coaching, coach education, child protection and safety, along with grants for athletics related equipment.  The Board also organises transport and accommodation for representative Cork teams.

Cork Athletics is a not-for-profit voluntary organisation. The Officers, Committee members and others who help to run the business of the Board are all volunteers, who give their time and expertise, free of charge, for the benefit of the athletes and the sport.

Cork Athletics is a designated Sports Body, Registered GS Number 3014 - Cork County Board (Athletics Association of Ireland) - under Section 235 Taxes Consolidation Act, 1997

Updated Top 10 - Irish Men's and Women's 10 Mile Road Race Performances - September 2019

Irish 10 Mile Rankings - September 2019

Guest Article by John Walshe


Last year, an Irish 10-mile ranking list was compiled for men and women, giving all performances under 55:00 (men) and 65:00 (women). At the end of April, a 2019 list was published for the year to that stage. Now, with only a few races remaining at the 10 Mile distance, the list has been updated to August 31st.  

The leading marks as of April remain the same -Sean Tobin (48:34) and Aoife Cooke (55:17). These are faster than last year’s overall times of 48:41 (Kevin Seward) and 56:47 (Laura O’Shaughnessy). Interestingly, Aoife Cooke now claims the top three performances for the year.

One performance of note is that of M55 record setter Tommy Hughes. Not many people can claim to have run 10 miles faster than their age-group, but Tommy did so in the Phoenix Park, on July 13, with his time of 54:54. As he reaches his 60th birthday in January, it will be interesting to see how he fares in his new category.  

In 2018, eight performances under 60:00 were achieved by women, already this year there have been 13 performances under the hour. Eight performances under 50:00 were also achieved by the men last year, while 11 have been recorded so far.

Last year’s respective totals under the standards of 55:00 (81) and 65:00 (47) have already been surpassed with 106 men and 56 women achieving those marks.


Undoubtably, there will be performances that, for whatever reason, have been missed, overlooked, or, maybe, were run abroad. If you are aware of any, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
