Sonia O'Sullivan will compete in the Great Ethiopian Run in Addis Ababa on 26 November.
"I have watched the race on TV before, and I know it's getting bigger every year," said O'Sullivan, who has dual Irish and Australian nationality.
"Having competed against Ethiopia's top athletes over the years, I'm looking forward to visiting the country for the first time and renewing friendships."
Twenty-five thousand participants have already registered for the 10km race.
Olympic champions Hicham El Guerrouj and Carolina Kluft will be in attendance, although not competing.
