About this race
The Delphi 10k is a point-to-point road race starting just beyond Delphi in Co. Mayo and finishing in the village of Leenane, Co. Galway. The course follows a shorter version of the half marathon route, running alongside the spectacular Killary Fjord — Ireland's only true fjord — through a dramatic landscape of mountains, rivers, and Atlantic waters. Mostly downhill and flowing, the route is well suited to runners of all abilities seeking an extraordinary scenic experience. The race passes through wild Connemara countryside with views of the surrounding mountain ranges throughout. A bus shuttle operates from Leenane to the start area on race morning. Race headquarters is in Leenane village. The course is officially measured and all finishers receive a medal.
Course profile & record eligibility
World Athletics record-eligibility rules cap net elevation loss at 1m per km of race distance, and require the start and finish to be no more than 50% of the race distance apart — both meant to stop a course gaining an unfair edge from downhill grade or a point-to-point tailwind. This is based on this course's recorded elevation and GPS data, not an official measurement or certification.
