There will be 2,500 participants, along with some 150 race stewards and other race personnel, at tomorrow night's event, consequently the hill be a very heavy demand for parking. There is ample parking in Cork Airport, however, it would help enormously if everyone could Car-Pool as far as possible.

Free parking will be available in the Holiday Blue carpark, adjacent to the Airport Terminal. Please allow up to fifteen (15) minutes to walk to the terminal

Please Car-Pool if at all possible

Items Prohibited Air Side

Due to potential damage to aircraft from items left or dropped on the runway, no loose items may be brought air-side from the terminal building, including: bottles, spare clothing, litter, mobiles phones, MP3 players, cameras, etc. In short, any loose, or potentially loose, item that may be dropped on the runway.

Immediately after the event, a 'sweep' of the runway will commence, to ensure that nobody has dropped anything on the runway. This 'sweep' is detailed, like a forensics search. It will be dark, making the sweep/search a lot harder...and longer. Please co-operate and leave loose items behind. Enjoy the unique location.

Check-In

Runway Run Stewards Check in 2015 min

Check-In will take place inside the Terminal building, at the normal Airline Check-in Desks. Check-in will open at 9pm (21:00) and will close at 11pm (23:00), one hour before the event starts. This is to allow runners to be guided through the security barriers, and to check that prohibited material is not being inadvertently brought air-side.
