With the Business House Athletics Association, Dublin City Council Runners Club will promote a 4 mile combined race on Sunday 11 December, 2021 in the beautiful St Anne’s park. The race will start at 11 00 a.m and finish on the tree-lined central avenue at the Sybil Hill/Vernon Avenue side of the park. 

It is a two lap race on paths within the park. The course is mostly flat so it could be an opportunity for a personal best. The course in the former residence of the Guinness family of stout fame makes it an attractive and scenic course.

The race should attract a large contingent from the Lord Mayor’s 5 alive series. ArdMheara/Lord Mayor Nial Ring will start the race. Uniquely he will also run the race and present the prizes.

• There will be a quiz afterwards with prizes of DCC concessions to amenities and parking.
