Race over the Glen

Race Over the Glen

Race Over the Glen is a technical trail race held in Glenariff Forest Park, Antrim. The course visits forest viewpoints and waterfalls and follows a marked route through the park. The event is a 10 kilometres technical trail race.

Entrants must be at least 16 years old. Organisers advise that runners should already be able to run 10 km non-stop on road and be confident on technical terrain. Tail runners may direct participants to exit the course for safety; in that case runners should not cross the finish line and must speak to a race official to receive their medal.

Entry is limited to a maximum of 800 runners. There are two entry options: Green Entry includes a medal and chip timing; Standard Entry includes a medal, chip timing and a ROTG beanie hat. Entry categories include affiliated and non-affiliated pricing. Transfers and name changes can be made online until the entry closing date; refunds and deferrals are not available.

Pre-race registration is at The Thatch in Broughshane and race day registration is at the Glenariff Visitors Centre. Parking is available at several nearby car parks and additional parking is provided at Parkmore Forest; car sharing is encouraged. Prize money is allocated across open, age-category, team and junior winners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
