These ‘no frills’ evening races have proved to be a tremendous success in recent times with numbers increasing year on year, and are a great opportunity to achieve personal goals in a relaxed environment. The organisers at Mayo Athletic Club have tried to maintain the casual element to the set up to make the experience suitable to all runners regardless of ability.

The Mayo AC Annual 5k Road Race Series serves as a major part of the club’s fundraising activities – your support would be greatly appreciated.
