Mám Éan

Mám Éan is a challenging mountain running event organized by the Irish Mountain Running Association, set in Galway. The course spans approximately 8.3 km with a significant elevation gain of 350 meters, featuring a mix of rocky and grassy terrain. Runners will navigate an "out and back" route, offering stunning views, particularly of the 12 Bens mountain range.

Participants are required to carry mandatory safety gear, including a waterproof jacket and a charged mobile phone. The event encourages carpooling due to limited parking, and registration opens in early August 2025. A junior course of about 3.5 km is also available.
