About the race
The Joe Duffy Group Clontarf Half Marathon – Autumn Edition is a certified road race that starts and finishes at EastPoint Business Park in Clontarf and follows an out-and-back route along Clontarf Promenade and across Bull Island, offering sustained coastal views of Dublin Bay and Howth Head. The event is a Half Marathon on a measured course with chip timing and a finisher’s medal for those who complete the race in person.
Race services include finish-line refreshments, a photowall, and a 15% discount at Life Style Sports for participants. A secure bag drop opens at 08:15; each participant may leave one small waterproof bag and should use the tear-off label from their race number.

Practical information: parking is available in EastPoint and Molloy & Sherry multi-storey car parks; drivers are asked to arrive before 09:00 due to road closures. The half marathon has a cut-off time of 3.5 hours. Pacers are provided for common target times. The course is wheelchair accessible though there are pinch points and potential crowding.
