Waterford’s 11th Viking Marathon has officially been launched and the route will take in two bridges, one Greenway and a party finish at Grattan Quay.
Sunday June 25th will see Waterford play host to its 11th annual WLR Waterford Viking Marathon.
For this event, the Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind will be the marathon's Charity Partner.
The Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind is Ireland's national charity providing Guide Dogs to those who are vision impaired and Assistance Dogs to the families of children with autism.
Runners will begin their full, half and quarter marathon at 9am on June 25th from The Mall in Waterford City Centre, before they travel along Waterford’s two iconic bridges and the stunning Waterford Greenway.
Walkers and wheelchair users will commence from the mall at 8.30am.
Live bands and DJs will keep both runners and spectators entertained along the route and we are delighted that several of the Guide Dogs for the Blind will be with their trainers and take part in the quarter marathon.
The finish line again this year is in Grattan Quay and promises to be great fun for all the family .
