About this race
The Windmill Run 5k follows a single-loop paved road course that starts and finishes in the scenic village of Garristown, North Co. Dublin. The route travels through the surrounding rural townlands on quiet, marshaled country roads, offering expansive views of the historic landmark windmill. Participants navigate the tarmac circuit before returning to the village for a grandstand finish.
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.
