Hello again! March is here and things are properly up and running. The spring season is not tiptoeing in anymore, it is barging through the door. The clocks have not even changed yet and already the race calendar is bursting at the seams. If February felt like a gentle return to civilisation after January, March is where it all starts to get serious. Club runners are sharpening up, marathon plans are locking in, and every province has something happening most weekends.
Below is a handy list of races taking place across Ireland for the rest of the month. Plenty to choose from, plenty to aim at, and no excuses now that the evenings are stretching out.
That is March in a nutshell. Spring is properly under way, the legs are waking up, and the calendar is no longer a blank page. For many, this is the month where training shifts from talk to action.
If your race is not listed above, send it on. Email phil@runrepublic.com and we will add it to both our race calendar and this article. The more the merrier.
