Lifestyle Sports - Adidas Dublin Marathon


We are encouraging everyone to make that resolution to run the 31st Dublin marathon on October 25th which can change your lifestyle for good.
The 26 mile marathon is run through the historic Georgian streets of Dublin. 2009 saw a record number of entrants to the Dublin marathon challenge with the hundreds of men and women taking to the streets of Dublin for charity. The reception from the many spectators lining the streets has provided encouragement for the participants from start to finish and is what gives it its name, the “Friendly marathon.”
