Preview of the Clonakilty 5km mile road race...

Location....Clonakilty is located some 40 kms to the south-west of Cork City...



Map of the course...


Course description....The race starts near the car park for the Waterfront building. This is just a few hundred metres from the race HQ at the Model Railway Village...

At about 400m, you pass the finish line at the Model Railway Village...

 ...and then head south alongside the bay...

This is the view at 1.1 miles as you begin a long straight section....

 At 1.3 miles, you turn off to the left. Those doing the 10 mile race turn right here.

 This is the turn around point at about 1.6 miles....

Overall...An out and back 5km course. Nice scenic course. A very fast and flat course. Possibly one of the flattest 5k courses in Cork.
