The 10th annual Croí Night Run 5k, sponsored by Benecol is taking place on the promenade in Salthill, Galway on Friday, October 11 at 8pm.

This is the 10th anniversary of the Croí Night Run, which raises funds for the heart & stroke charity, and is taking place live in Salthill and virtually, with runners taking part where they can.

The 5k race will start at Mutton Island at 8pm and crowds will be expected in the area in advance of the start time.

The half way point is the “kick wall” before Blackrock Tower – runners will turn around at this point and return via the promenade and run back to Mutton Island finish line

Due to the unprecedented demand, with 2,000 participants expected, motorists and road users are advised that there may be delays in the area from 8-9.30pm.

A Temporary rolling road closure has been granted on Grattan Road (R336) from Mutton Island to Blackrock from 8pm – 9.30 pm.
