ST.JOHNS SPECIAL SCHOOL TO BENEFIT FROM WATERFORD GREENWAY HALF MARATHON.

Each year for the Waterford Greenway half marathon we partner up with a charity that will benefit from the donated monies by the runners taking part in the event. 

This year we are delighted to announce our charity partners for the event will be St.Johns Special School ,Dungarvan  As all our supporters know we try to raise awareness for important causes and charities with our events and this year the chosen charity we are supporting is St. Johns special school which  is a special school for Children with a Mild or Moderate General  Learning Disability, with two classes for children with a Severe to Profound General Learning Disability. 

They cater for boys and girls aged between 4 and 18 years from a wide catchment area which covers Dungarvan and West Waterford, and from Kilmacthomas to East Cork, and areas of South Tipperary. St. John's strives to provide a well-ordered, happy and secure atmosphere where the intellectual, spiritual physical, moral and cultural needs of the pupils are identified and addressed.

 For further race information please log on to club web site www.westwaterfordathletics.org and follow the link on home page for GREENWAY all race information 

Please note this event is expected to sell out fast.

This fantastic amenity opened officially in 2017 and has already experienced visitors from all over the country and beyond. Users are amazed by this 47 km spectacular off-road cycling and walking trail along an old railway line between Waterford and Dungarvan.

Please note this is a point to point race starting near the Coachhouse Kilmacthomas and finishing near Ballinroad, Dungarvan. Entry fee includes bus from Ballinroad to the start line near Kilmacthomas.

As the map shows below, the half-marathon starts near Kilmacthomas and finishes in Dungarvan.

As it was an old railway line, the course is very slightly downhill overall. The old railway line at Kilmacthomas is about 60-metres above sea level while Dungarvan is just above sea level. 

The course is certainly a LOT flatter than the average race on public roads.

Record numbers for the Waterford Viking Marathon event - 22nd June 2025

The annual Waterford Viking Marathon was held this year on Sunday 22nd of June 2025 with over 3300 participants across the three events on offer... the full, half and quarter marathon.

Results HERE

The chart above shows the numbers since the event started in 2012.

The inaugural year of 2012 saw a record number of over 800 finishers for the full marathon as many runners were inspired to do the first marathon in the city. With that box ticked, the numbers dropped back to to about 400-500 per year. 

In 2018, the full marathon was cancelled due to the heat.

Post pandemic, the numbers have been recovering and the 531 finishers in 2025 was the second highest ever.

The Half-Marathon numbers have varied over the years but 2024 and 2025 were both new records.

Cork, Limerick and Waterford all have a shorter event which seems to be increasingly popular. Cork has a 10k, Limerick has a 6-mile and Waterford has a Quarter-Marathon.

The Quarter-Marathon this year had over 1400 finishers and has just overtaken the half to be the most popular event.

The chart above shows the total number of finishers from all events added together. This shows the extraordinary growth in the last few years.

Guest Post: Entries Flooding in for the 40th Coillte 10k Road Race in Dundrum, Tipperary

From Dundrum AC... Niamh O'Mahony from the An Riocht club in Kerry promoting this years Coillte 10k road race to be run for the 40th consecutive year in Dundrum on Wednesday 2nd July at 8pm.The US based scholarship athlete was a clear winner of the women's section at last years race in a excellent time of 34 minutes 46 seconds. 

Forty years, four decades, four national records Wednesday the 2nd of July at 8pm the Coillte 10k Road Race in Dundrum Co Tipperary will be run for the 40th consecutive year by the local Dundrum Club.

With two weeks to go to race date entries are flooding in so intended runners should get their entry in now to be sure of receiving the specially Embroidered Souvenir Hand Towel to be collected from 6pm on the evening of the race along with your race number at race HQ Dundrum Community Hall E34 EY28.

This year the club has once again linked up with Niall O’Sullivan’s Premier Timing Systems for entries and result data to manage the ever-increasing numbers of runners every year.

Entries are online via the link https://eventmaster.ie/event/67A1sEpT5G. The club would appreciate it if participants could enter at least a week or two before the race date. Early entry gives the organizers an idea of the number of embroidered dated towels required, plus the food requirements for the big spread afterwards. Also, it is a big help to Niall for him to get to work on his system early.

This year’s official race starter is Dominic Moore. The Rosmult man who competed with his native Upperchurch, Moyne and Dundrum in his day has maintained his connection with the race over the years through his donation of the Tim Crowe trophy for the first Tipperary athlete over the finish line. Dominic finished third in the very first 10k back in 1986 so forty years later it is appropriate that Dominic should blow the whistle to set the athletes on their way.

Michael Hassett St Catherines has the best number of men’s victories with six wins. While in the women’s race Siobhan O’Doherty Borrisokane is in a class of her own with twelve wins.

The following are all the winners since the event first ran in 1986.
