Chapelizod running clubs comparison

paddylast

I took up running this year and completed all adidas series races and the dublin marathon. looking to join a club within the chapelizod area to train a few times a week and improve my fun runner times.

I heard there are 3 clubs Donore Harriers, Liffey Valley and Metro St Bridgids.

does anyone know which club would suit? whats facilities like for each?

thanks

i would say that liffey valley are the most renound in terms of present talent however donore have a rich history and a recent injection of youth has seen them to be an uprising power in the last two years. unfortunately facility wise i would not be able to comment

It's directly opposite the Chapelizod gate, alongside the banks of the Liffey. Brand new all-weather track, too.
