Glenariff Mountain Race (Spud Run) : overview
The Glenariff Mountain Race (Spud Run) takes place in Glenariff, County Antrim on Saturday 14 March 2026. The course distance is 9.30 km with a total climb of 400 m. A short course is listed as 0.00 km. GPS devices are not allowed. Only major junctions on the route will be marked.
Race requirements and logistics
The event uses Mandatory Kit Level B - Standard. Required items are a waterproof jacket, hat or buff, gloves, whistle, a charged mobile phone with the emergency number stored, and a foil blanket, bivvy bag, or equivalent. Runners must bring these items; the specific kit to be carried during the race will be finalised on the day and advised at registration. Participants should have the means to carry the kit. Failure to have required items may result in denial of entry or disqualification, and random checks may be carried out.
Entry details have not been added; entries for league events usually open a couple of weeks before the event. Volunteer roles are managed through myIMRA; non-running volunteers must complete two non-running volunteer roles in a calendar year to qualify for the end-of-year prize. Volunteering while running does not count toward that qualification. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
