Ennis Summer Solstice
The Ennis Summer Solstice is a running event held in County Clare, Ireland. Set on the evening of June 19, the race takes place during the longest days of the year, allowing participants to compete in evening light. The route begins and ends at Lees Road in Ennis, navigating through the local countryside.
The course covers a distance of 10 km (6.2 miles) and consists of tarmac surfaces. Runners travel along quiet country roads designed to be fast and free from city traffic. The event is open to various participation styles, including runners, joggers, and walkers of all paces.
Participants receive several services and items as part of their entry:
- 10 km run on a marshalled and supported route.
- Chip timing with instant results.
- Physical finishers medal for all participants.
- Access to water stations along the course.
- Post-race refreshments for those who complete the distance.
The event structure includes prizes for top finishers and professional photography throughout the route. Registration and race pack collection take place on-site prior to the start. The course typically closes 90 minutes after the initial start time. Because the race occurs in June, the lighting conditions remain bright throughout the duration of the run.
