I’m contemplating Belfast this year. It’s between Belfast and Derry. Having ran Derry the last few years I fancy a change.
Where would it be recommended to get a hotel? Is public transport good, to get to and from start-line, finish-line etc?? |

I did Belfast last year for the first time and the Derry half. Definitely would recommend Belfast! Hoping to sneak in around 3 hours 20 this year. Weather dependent! |

"Started training for the Dublin marathon, first time!! Bricking myself lol
I’d love to do the Dublin one! Planing to do a half marathon this year "
Derry 1/2 is a nice easy one to get yourself acclimatised to the 13miles |

From couch to 13.1miles in 9 months, would be pushing it Phoenix, maybe couch to 5k would be a start, would take about 4 months then build up to 10k then half marathon x |

Dublin City Marathon isn’t too bad but this year they had the lottery system. I’m not sure when they draw out the entrants though. Anyone else know this? |
