Kilwaughter Minerals Larne 10-Miler: Race to be staged in March

The Kilwaughter Minerals Larne 10 Miler will take place on March 25 offering runners the opportunity to take on one of the flattest and fastest 10-mile race routes in the UK and Ireland.

The race, open to elite club runners, fun runners and everyone in between, returns for a second year following the success of the inaugural race in 2022 which saw more than 700 participants run Larne’s roads.

Kilwaughter Minerals’ Head of Business Development, Caroline Rowley, said: “We’re thrilled to again partner with Larne Athletic Club and launch the 2023 race.

“The Larne 10-Miler is a fantastic chance for runners, both near and far, to come together for some competitive fun whilst enjoying the scenic views of Northern Ireland’s iconic coast road.

“We look forward to seeing both familiar and new faces taking to the start line in March.”

Larne Athletic Club Chairman William Thompson, added: “Together with Kilwaughter Minerals we put on a superb race event last year attracting athletes from across the country.

“Based on the impressive race times recorded, the fun had, and the positive feedback we received from participants and residents alike, we expect our 2023 race to be an even bigger event.

“With entries for this year’s race now open, we encourage runners of all ages and abilities to register.”

Starting at 10.00am on March 25, runners will take off from the promenade, pound the pavement through the famous Black Arch and finish at Larne Leisure Centre.
