WHY RUNNERS SAVE THEIR LEGS FOR THE BORDER
Cross a county line mid-race
Start in Clare, run into Limerick, finish back in Clare. It is the story you will be telling at the next club session.
One more shot at a PB
Accurately measured and fully marshalled, so you can switch off and race. If you have a fast half left in you this year, this is where to find it.
A medal you will actually hang up
Custom designed for the 2026 Border Half and made for this race only. Not a stock medal with a sticker on it.
