Main Street in Longford town, near the Longford Arms Hotel, is the start and finish for the marathon. The half marathon is a flat single lap: one mile through town, two miles or so along the N5 on Strokestown Road, then quiet rural roads and a return by the Battery Road. Water stations come every 3 miles, and each mile is marked. The ultra marathon, about 63 km, sets off at 7:00, two hours ahead of the marathon and half. Collect your number at the hotel on the Saturday or early on Sunday.
