2010 will be the 7th year of the annual My Sport Enniscorthy 10k. The event record is held by Latvian, Sandis Bralitis (West Waterford AC) with a time of 30’32”. Significantly in the next 10k we are offering a €500 bonus to anyone who creates a new event record. This together with the €150 winners prize will make a very nice €650 for half an hours work. We suspect that this will attract quality athletes from far and wide.
The Shamrocks GAA club is Race HQ and this is where parking, changing and shower facilities are available. Hospitality in the form of hot and cold drinks, sandwiches and cakes are laid on after the race by your hosts – Slaney Olympic AC.
The course remains unchanged due to positive feedback we’ve received over the years. It meanders around the foot of historic Vinegar Hill in a loop circuit before finishing downhill for most of the last mile; and if you are able to look up at this stage you can take in the beautiful views of Mt Leinster and the Enniscorthy countryside.
A generous prize fund, spot prizes, warm hospitality, a fast course and souvenir T shirts for the first 250 to register. All the ingredients for a great race in Enniscorthy, County Wexford on February 14th(St. Valentines Day) 2010. The race starts at 2pm and the 10k walk begins at 1.30pm.
