Savills Sandymount Night Run – October Edition
The Savills Sandymount Night Run is an evening running event on Dublin Bay that uses a professionally measured, looped course around Sean Moore Park and along Sandymount Strand. The event offers two distances:
- 5 km : one lap
- 10 km : two laps
The course surface includes road and beach sections with 22 m of elevation. Chip timing is used for accurate results. The event is fully marshalled, has a bag drop beside the start/finish (open from 5:30pm), and provides a finisher’s medal and a bespoke event running t-shirt to participants who complete the race. Finish-line refreshments and goodies are available; a water station is provided for the 10 km at 5.5 km while there is no water on the 5 km course. Paper cups are used for on-course hydration and should be disposed of in bins at Sean Moore Park.
Practical details include limited local parking, public transport recommended, toilets at the start/finish, and no showers or changing facilities. The course is not wheelchair accessible. Minimum age for either distance is 16 years. The cut-off time for the event is 1 hour 45 minutes. Entries are non-refundable; name changes and distance changes can usually be arranged before numbers are allocated. A one-day Athletics Ireland licence fee applies for non-members.
