The 2026 Irish Life Dublin Half Marathon Medal 🏅

Celebrating the iconic setting that has been home to the event for more than two decades: Phoenix Park.

The design brings together two of the park’s most recognisable features — the Wellington Monument and a pair of deer — creating an instant connection to the place where thousands will take on the 13.1-mile challenge.

A tribute to the long-standing relationship between the Irish Life Dublin Half Marathon, its runners and Phoenix Park 🌳

Every Bib Has a Story ❤️

Meet Brenda, who is taking on her second marathon this October — this time on the streets of the city she now calls home. 🇮🇪🏃🏻‍♀️

💬 “Dublin Marathon feels extra special to me because Dublin has become home. I’ve been living here for four years, so the idea of running a marathon through the city I live in and love feels really special.”

Brenda’s first marathon experience didn’t go to plan. An injury during training for London eventually required surgery, completely changing her preparation — but she still made it to the finish line.

💬 “It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but also one of the things I’m most proud of.” 🥹

Now healthy and back running consistently, Brenda is finally getting the opportunity to experience a full marathon training block and discover what she’s capable of.

💬 “My goal for Dublin is around 4:30, but more than anything, I’m excited to see what I can do when I’m healthy and properly prepared.”

From a 5:55 finish in London to chasing a new PB at home in Dublin — this one is about enjoying the journey and seeing just how far she’s come. ❤️

✨ Best of luck with the rest of your training, Brenda. We can’t wait to welcome you to the start line 🎉

As part of our continued commitment to supporting runners on their marathon journey, Emmett Dunleavy will be our Official Dublin Marathon Group Coach for 2026.

💬 Dunleavy said: “Taking on a marathon is a huge personal challenge, whether you’re aiming to complete your first race or chasing a new personal best. I’m looking forward to supporting participants throughout their training with practical advice, guidance and encouragement in the lead-up to race day.”
