About this race
The Fields of Athenry 10k starts behind the train station and follows a scenic, undulating loop through the rural roads of East Galway. The course is known for a steady climb, or "long drag," shortly after the first left turn, followed by rolling countryside and four main left-hand bends. The final kilometer offers a fast, flat stretch that leads runners directly back into the historic town center to finish under the iconic medieval North Gate arch.
