Ireland
The MTC Pooka is a challenging 38-mile ultra marathon that serves as the first day of the Mount to Coast MizMal® series, a 14-day endurance event across Ireland. Starting from Mizen Road in Goleen and finishing at the Eccles Hotel in Glengarriff, the race follows a scenic route that incorporates elements of Irish mythology. Participants are required to maintain a minimum pace of 4 mph, with cut-off times at various checkpoints.
All finishers receive a bespoke medal, and there are options to upgrade entries for additional merchandise. The event emphasizes self-sufficiency, as it is a cup-free race, requiring runners to bring their own reusable cups. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
