EAMS: September 6 Hour Challenge

The East Antrim Marathon Series stages an in-person running event at Loughshore Park in Newtownabbey. The course is a measured coastal loop of 4.2 miles that goes from Loughshore Park to Gideons Green and back. Participants complete as many loops as they wish within a six-hour time limit, which allows finishing marathon and ultra distances if enough laps are covered. The course is measured for full marathon, half marathon and 10K distances.

An earlier start may be accommodated for marathon runners who require more time than the six-hour limit. Completing a single lap is sufficient to be recorded as a finisher. Refunds are available up to seven days before the event. The event is organised by East Antrim Marathon Series and takes place in person at Loughshore Park, Shore Road, Newtownabbey BT37 0PY.
