About this race
The Michelle McKiernan Annual 5k is a chip-timed road race organised by Star of the Sea AC, held on the fourth Tuesday of May each year in Stamullen village, County Meath. Now in its 14th year, the event takes place in and around Stamullen village, starting and finishing at St. Patrick's GAA Complex. The course is a well-established road circuit, known for being fast; the current course record of 14 minutes 53 seconds is held jointly by Andrew Coscoran and Jonas Stafford. Juvenile fun races take place on the track at 7pm, with the main 5k starting at 8pm. There are no entries on the day and the event is chip timed throughout.
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.
