About

The race

The Irish Life Dublin Half Marathon takes place nearly entirely within Phoenix Park, giving runners a scenic but still competitive setting across wide park roads and longer, straighter sections. Phoenix Park is one of Europe's largest enclosed city parks, offering a unique race environment away from city traffic, with the Áras an Uachtaráin (the Irish President's residence) and Dublin Zoo among the landmarks runners pass.
