The Marconi Run returns for 2023, and with a slight change to the previous route, it will be a five mile run for the first time ever.


The annual much enjoyed event will take place on the North Antrim coast, beginning at Ballycastle Tennis Courts on Sunday 28 May at 11am.



A spokesperson for Ballycastle Runners AC said:


"The first 150 runners to sign up will get their hands on one of our bespoke medals so make sure to get your name in early.


"We’ll also have prizes for our top  three male and female finishers, along with age category prizes from 35-40 up to 70 plus".
