The race is set over a challenging but enjoyable 10-mile route. You will enjoy running in some of Kilkenny’s most beautiful scenery. The route winds across gentle valleys and up country roads before emerging at the crest of Stook Hill. From here you will have stunning views down to the finish and you’ll get to experience Ireland’s fastest downhill mile – The Stook Flying Mile - before crossing the finish line. The race is now famous for our unique finisher’s cowbell, which pays homage to the race’s fabulous setting. Collections of these sought-after ornaments are now building all over the country! The 10km race takes place over the final 10km of the 10mile route, so runners also get to experience the joy of going up, and down the Stook hill! The 5k race is a family fun run, taking place on a scenic loop around the village. Race t-shirt for first 250 entries. Commemorative cowbell for all 10 Mile and 10k finishers. Refreshments provided afterwards at the finish area.
