and ahead of schedule too! We hadn’t planned to launch the city runs in Dublin until closer to marathon time but due to popular demand, we had our inaugural run today. By all accounts, all went well. The rain held off, we didn’t get lost, saw a lot of good sights, got in over 8mls of early morning running and made it back to the hotel on schedule.

So if you are interested in joining one of our tours when you’re in Dublin for the marathon, let us know as soon as you can. Its the perfect way to  see the city.

THANKS,  I LOVED IT!  IT IS ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO SEE A CITY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. - Kevin Campbell, Austin, Texas

I have been contacted by some people looking for stuff to do before & after the race. So in response to this, we are offering people who may be in Dublin for the first time and/or may be travelling alone to meet up with the Irish Running Tours group. We have a number of fun & interesting things to do. You may even want to join us for the post race celebratory dinner. Check out our marathon itineraries on this site. Please contact us asap for full details and prices as space is limited.

It is now August, so if you are planning on doing the Dublin Marathon this year, you better get a move on ! We are offering a further 10% discount on both the short & long tours. We have only a limited number of spaces available so this is on a first come basis. All tours must be booked by the end of the month.
