Monasterboice 5K

Lace up your runners and join us for the Monasterboice 5K — a unique community event set against one of Ireland’s most historic landmarks.

The route takes participants past the iconic Monasterboice Round Tower and ancient high crosses, offering a memorable mix of fitness, heritage, and local spirit.

Whether you’re chasing a personal best or simply enjoying the atmosphere, this is a run not to be missed. More than just a race, the Monasterboice 5K is about supporting two very important causes close to our community’s heart.

Proceeds from the event will go towards supporting Naomh Mairtin GAA, while also raising vital funds for hospice care services in Drogheda. Every step taken on the day will help make a real difference.

Bring your family, friends, and community spirit for an evening of exercise, history, and generosity. Together, we can celebrate our local heritage while supporting organisations that provide care, opportunity, and compassion throughout our community.
