About this race
The Easter Monday 5k in Dundalk provides an exceptionally fast and flat experience, perfect for shaking off the holiday chocolate with a new personal best. This AAI-permitted road race starts and finishes at the Dundalk Gaels GFC, guiding runners through a single-loop tarmac circuit that is as accessible as it is scenic. The level terrain and smooth surfaces ensure a consistent pace for all abilities.
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.
