Summer Series 2011 ......Visit TRInRUN On Facebook.... 

Thursday May 26th sees the start of the Ballycotton Summer Road Race Series for 2011 – a combination of four events in four villages that proudly proclaims itself as Ireland’s Original Road Racing Series.The Series has now been on the go for 30 years and offers all standards of runners a chance to test themselves over the five-mile distance from May to August at four different venues. One of the first things to remember is that all the races take place on the fourth Thursday of the relevant month.
Entry fee is just €5 per race (on the final night, €1 is added which is donated to a nominated charity). There is a comprehensive prize list for each event plus overall awards which are decided on cumulative time over the four races. In addition, a special T-shirt will be awarded to the first 50 men and first 20 women overall and all runners completing the four races will receive the famous souvenir plaque.
Last year saw record turnouts in all four events with numbers averaging just over 500 per race. As facilities such as parking, toilets, etc are limited at each venue it is vital that runners arrive early on the night. Entries open at 6pm for each race and runners are asked to have the correct entry fee ready (€5 for the first three events, €6 on final night).
