Wicklow Hospice Half Marathon & 10km 2027
The 14th annual event in aid of Wicklow Hospice takes place on 20 February 2027 at Avondale Forest Park, Rathdrum, Co Wicklow. The event offers two distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
Both races use a looped course that begins and finishes at Avondale Forest Park and follows a mix of country roads and gravel forest trails. The course includes some elevation: Half Marathon 283 m, 10 km 129 m. Walkers are welcome on the 10 km. The event is chip timed. All finishers receive a medal, and prizes are awarded to winners and the top three in each age category.
There are two ticket routes. General release tickets go on sale on Friday 6 November at 10:00, with entry fees listed as Half Marathon €42 including postage of race number, and 10 km €30 including postage of race number. A fundraising option, the Wicklow 100 Team, requires a commitment to raise at least €100 and includes free race entry for the chosen distance, a free t-shirt, and optional group training sessions in Avondale in the lead up to the race. Route maps and further details will be published in early 2027; the route will be largely the same as in 2026 with a couple of tweaks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
