Dingle Marathon
The Dingle Marathon is a race event that takes place in Dingle, County Kerry, Ireland which consists of a half, a full and an ultra marathon.[1] The event started in 2009.[2] The marathon begins and ends in Dingle town, taking in Slea Head and the Dingle Peninsula on its route, whilst the half marathon goes from Dingle to Dun Chaoin.[3]
The marathon course has been praised by some reviewers for its scenery, but criticised for its number of hills.[4][5] The races had 2,500 participants at the event's founding in 2009, and participation peaked at approximately 3,500 participants in 2018.[3]
