The Athlone 10 Mile Run committee will host the annual Athlone 10 Mile Run in Clonown on Saturday, May 16.

Always a popular event within the local running community, the Athlone 10 mile race will start in Clonown village at 11am.

Participants are guaranteed a very flat course noted for achieving personal best times, the race incorporating most of the route used during the formerly held Athlone Flatline half marathon.

It is an Athletics Ireland measured course with cash prizes for numerous race category winners. This year there will also be an Athlone 10 mile bespoke medal for all participants.

An early bird price of €24 is applicable up to April 19, the entrance fee being €30 thereafter.
