Savills Sandymount Night Run – October Edition
The Savills Sandymount Night Run is an evening road and beach loop event on Dublin Bay that offers 5 km and 10 km distances. The course is a measured loop running around Sean Moore Park and along Sandymount Strand; 5 km participants complete one lap and 10 km participants complete two laps. The event is fully marshalled and uses chip timing so a participant's race time begins when they cross the start line.
Entry includes a finisher’s medal, a bespoke event running t-shirt, chip timing, and finish-line refreshments. A bag drop operates beside the start/finish area from 5:30 pm; participants are advised to use the baggage label on their race number and to limit items to one small bag. Toilets are provided at the start/finish area; there are no toilets on the course.
The event has a course cut-off time of 1 hour 45 minutes and permits walking provided participants can meet the cut-off. Water is provided for 10 km runners at approximately 5.5 km; there is no water station on the 5 km course. Paper cups are used and should be disposed of in provided bins.
Practical notes: parking along the seafront is limited and public transport is recommended; there is no event parking at Clanna Gael GAA club. The course is not wheelchair accessible. Minimum age for either distance is 16 years. Refunds are not available; entries can usually be transferred to another runner before race numbers are allocated. Race numbers are posted to Irish addresses before the event when registered before the postal cut-off; others must collect on site. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
