The sponsor of the Whitehead Road Race, Wright’s Spar Whitehead, has issued a picture of the 2020 Road Race medal for those taking part in the main (5 mile) Road Race. We understand that there will be a different medal for those taking part in the Fun Run. Watch this space.
Whitehead is a small seaside town on the east coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland, lying almost midway between the towns of Carrickfergus and Larne.
Whitehead is located about 20 miles from Belfast and is nicknamed ‘The Town With No Streets’ because no roads in the town have the description “street” included.
It is easily accessible by rail, bus and road, on the coast road between Carrickfergus and Larne. The two main airports are Belfast City Airport, named the George Best airport about 20 miles away, accessible by airport bus, train and road and Belfast International Airport, near Templepatrick, County Antrim, accessible by airport bus and road.
