Run The Line 2026

Run The Line is a fundraising trail running event in aid of Dublin Wicklow Mountain Rescue. It takes place on 14 November 2026 with both the start and finish at Glencullen Adventure Park, set in the Dublin Mountains.

The event offers two waymarked courses:

26 km course
13 km course

Both routes use a mix of surfaces and terrain, including forest paths, single track, fire roads and open mountainside, with views across Dublin city and county. The race uses wave starts and race packs are posted to competitors in advance. Postage of the race number is available to the Republic of Ireland only; entrants outside the Republic of Ireland must collect their number on the day.

Prizes are awarded for first, second and third places for men and women on both distances. Post-race refreshments are provided for competitors. An early bird discount of 10 percent is available for entries made before 31 August 2026 using the code EARLY2026. Ticket categories include long course and short course entry with separate fees for each. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
