Blarney Stone Mad Half Marathon 2027
The event is a Half Marathon held from Blarney GAA Club (T23 KP73). The course takes runners through Blarney Village, then along Waterloo Road for an out-and-back section to the Rathduff Cross turn-point, with views of the River Martin valley. The route returns to Blarney Village, continues toward Blarney Secondary School, and finishes at the Blarney GAA Clubhouse.
The course is officially measured and will use chip timing under an Athletics Ireland race licence. Entry requires payment of €40 plus a registration fee. Entries are non-refundable but may be transferred between 1 January and 20 February. Runners must be at least 18 on race day and able to complete the distance in under 3 hours. Prizes will be awarded to overall winners and age categories.
All participants receive a finisher medal and a mug; a T-shirt is available for an additional cost. A race briefing with detailed practical information such as parking and race numbers will be sent to registered athletes before the event.
