The Michael Manning Memorial Dunshaughlin 10k begins on the R125 and concludes with a high-energy finish on Lagore Road. This fast, single-loop course guides participants from the heart of the town centre through scenic rural roads, passing through local landmarks like Donnelly’s Cross and Greenhills. The terrain is predominantly level and is widely regarded as one of the premier flat and fast courses in the country. While mostly level, the section between the 6km and 8km marks features a slight incline that offers a rewarding challenge for athletes. The race culminates in a flat sprint to the finish line, providing a professional and high-spirited atmosphere for all participants.
