This was my first half marathon but not my first race in Kerry. The Killarney half marathon was very well organised. Easy bag drop off and collection, with almost no wait time. Lots of toilets available, space to stretch and warm up pre-race, fabulous food and drink afterwards. The collection of medals and finisher tops was very clearly marked and easy to navigate. I even noticed the route must have been cleaned before the race as there was no rubbish or debris on the route, I was very impressed by that! Eco- friendly water bottle options and lots of support staff and marshals so turns and re-routes were very clearly marked and executed. I will 100% sign up for Run Killarney again. 10/10 race!
