Bay Run 2019

On the 19th May 2019 the Bay Run Half-Marathon and 10k Run will take place from Glengarriff to Bantry. Don’t let the scenery stop you!

Glengarriff is famed for its natural beauty. Situated on the world-renowned Bantry Bay, where the mountains meet the sea, Glengarriff is the gateway to the Beara peninsula, connecting the towns of Bantry and Kenmare and has also acquired a fine reputation for the great variety of shops, galleries, accommodation, restaurants, pubs and services.

The Bay Run sweeps through these mountains in West Cork and brings some spectacular scenery as you approach the majestic town of Bantry steeped in history.

As you approach the town you will be diverted off down the beach walk to stay on the bay and finish close to Wolfe Tone Square.

A shorter 10km race will also take place on the day. See http://bayrun.ie for details.

Bay Run Route

Starting in Glengarriff, follow the N71 heading for Bantry. In Ballylickey (by the Ouvane Falls) turn off the main road heading for Pearson’s Bridge. Turning right here, loop through Dromdaniel back onto the N71 heading for Bantry. Follow N71 into town and finishing in the Upper Car Park at the edge of the Bantry Town Square.

When you enter the Half Marathon & 10Km you will receive:
Race Timing Chip
Race Number
Water stations along the route
Finisher’s Medal
Technical T-Shirt available for an extra charge.
