The course begins with a downhill start from Leeson Street through St Stephen’s Green, before continuing through the historic Liberties and past St Patrick’s Cathedral. The final 10K features both descents and testing climbs. After a downhill on Dartry Road, around the 35K mark, the well-known “Irish Heartbreak Hill” presents the most formidable challenge before a downhill along Fosters Avenue. From there, it is a straight run to the finish line at Pepper Canister Church.
