Cork Rebel Run 10K
The Cork Rebel Run is an annual community running event organised by Cork Sports Partnership, MTU Sports Department/Athletics Club and Leisureworld Cork. The 2026 event is scheduled for Sunday October 18th at the MTU Bishopstown campus in Cork, with both start and finish on the MTU campus and a finish on the MTU Athletics Track.
There are two route options:
- 5 km
- 10 km
The 10 km route is mainly on road for approximately the first 7 km, with the final 3 km on pedestrian walkways (Curraheen River Walk) and road before returning to MTU. The 5 km route uses road for about the first 1.5 km, then the Curraheen River Walk for roughly 2 km, finishing on road into MTU.
The event is chip timed and has a participation cap of 1,000 for 2026. Registration opens in August and closes in October or when capacity is reached. All pre-registered participants must sign in and collect their event number, timing chip, goody bag and souvenir gift in advance; there will be no sign in on the morning of the event. The minimum entry age is 15 years and those under 18 require parental permission. Category prizes apply for the 10 km only and spot prizes are awarded across both events.
