About this race
The Duhallow AC 5k (also known as the Newmarket 5k) is an out-and-back road race that starts and finishes in the town of Newmarket, North-West Cork. The course follows a single out-and-back route on paved roads, heading from the town center toward the outskirts before turning back to finish near the race headquarters. IT features a predominantly flat profile with very minor elevation changes.
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.
