    Hi,
    I was wondering if there any running tracks in the Inchicore area? I am a member of a gym but I don't like running on treadmills. I'm also not a fan of running on the streets because I like to do high intensity routines. Thanks

    Maybe check out Donore Harriers running club, I believe they have a track of some description and not too far away. Other than that the Phoenix park is good for running but no Athletics track as such.

    Only one I know of is Eamonn Ceannt Park (Sundrive Park) on Clogher Rd, has a decent sized track, not sure how accessible it is these days.

    Donore Harriers have a very nice track right beside the Liffey but don't think it's open to the public.

    The CIE club in Inchicore have private/walled pitches. I would say you can use it for your purposes and doing laps and that. The club building is used by the public anyway. A nice quite area.

    The rear of the Oblates has extensive grounds. They could probably be used as well.

    Memorial Gardens is great for doing laps and hill sprints. Plus it's pretty.

    IMMA gardens are good for laps too. Again not flat.
