Registration opens at 9.20am and closes at 10.30am. If you are not in the Queue by this time then you will not be registered for the race. You can of course run anywhere on the mountain you like but please do not interfere with the race, DO NOT PARK ON ROAD OUTSIDE TICKNOCK, entrances, race route, etc and Do Not Pass Through The Finish.

Given the numbers expected at this race it would help if some of the early arrivals could use the alternative public car park at Marlay Park particularly if you do not intend coming to the pub after the race. The car park is on the south side of Marlay Park on the road parallel to the motorway. This car park is approx 3 min jog back to Taylors.

| Dermot Murphy | Jan 14, 9:27AM | Hi guys. I will be the Race Director for this race. I will send around a list of responsibilities a couple of days before the race. I still need a few more volunteers for the race including First Aid officer and Race marker. Can people please sign up as volunteers over the next couple of days so that I can organise the tasks in time before the race? Thanks. |

| Tony Keely | Jan 18, 1:53PM | No problem Andy will contact you to arrange details. |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 18, 1:59PM | Hi Henny - I still do not have a race marker - could any of the non running volunteers please help Henny mark the course? |
| Tim O'Brien | Jan 18, 2:22PM | Hi, I wonder is anyone driving through terenure/kimmage/hareold's cross (or anywhere near) on the way out to the race this Saturday, I'm really stuck for a lift! My mobile is 0851046333. Thanks. Tim. |
| Brendan Doherty | Jan 18, 4:46PM | Hi there Dermot/Henny Like our dear Dutch colleague, I am also recovering from injury and so would be very happy to assist with marking the route. Dermot, I can get in touch with Henny if you are in agreement. Perhaps you could also enroll me as a helper. Cheers |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 18, 5:51PM | Thanks Brendan - thats sounds fine. When you have been in touch with Henny, just let me what time you want to start marking the course so I can arrange to get the marking gear over to you. |
| Kate Harris | Jan 19, 7:52AM | Hi, I am happy to volunteer and help out at the race in Ticknock, if you still need helpers? I am new to IMRA but planning to run over the course of the year, if only I can shake the end of this flu. Many thanks, Kate |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 19, 12:44PM | Thanks Kate, I have added you in as a helper. Do you want to run? I am still looking for a First Aid officer, if anyone is available can they please sign up asap? |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 19, 12:50PM | A quick note regarding registration for Saturday: Registration will take place at Taylors pub, and hopefully we will have access to the lounge for the purposes of registration. Registration will open at 9:15am and close at 10:30am, in order to give the officals time to complete registrations before the race and also to get to the start line. Can people please car pool as much as possible up to the forest and park INSIDE the gates. Its a 10 minute jog from Taylors to the start line, so people may prefer to jog up as part of their warm up. We will try to start the race at 11am sharp. |
| Brendan Pollard | Jan 19, 1:19PM | Hi Folks, Anyone traveling from Glasnevin area on Saturday morning? Bren |
| Turlough Conway | Jan 19, 2:54PM | Hi Brendan. Im leaving from Ballybough. Can swing around Griffith Ave, Glasnevin no probs. Send me a mail. turlough dot conway at iadt dot ie |
| Turlough Conway | Jan 19, 2:58PM | on the carpool now.... |
| Kate Harris | Jan 19, 11:18PM | Hi Dermot, Not running unfortunately, but, happy to help out. What time / where do you plan to meet up before hand? K |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 20, 10:41AM | Can all volunteers arrive at Taylors before registration opens - say around 9:10am. I will send a list of jobs to each person by mail later today. Can volunteers please send me a quick mail at dermot.murphy at imra dot ie so that I have their mail address? I have some but not all mail addresses. |
| Paul Brew Crew | Jan 21, 8:39AM | Hi all, The Brew Crew will be at the race on Saturday offering our usual selection of hot strong Coffees, Teas and Hot Chocolates together with a mix of healthy / unhealthy goodies. See you there!! Paul. |
| Ken Cowley | Jan 21, 11:12AM | I left a black ankle strap somewhere near the clubhouse in Howth last week. If anybody found it, can they let me know, and/or bring it to Ticknock? I'm volunteering, collecting money, so easy to find me.. Thanks, Ken Cowley 085 7129070 |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 21, 1:02PM | Just to say again- Registration will open at 9:15am and close at 10:30am, in order to give the officals time to complete registrations before the race and also to get to the start line. In addition, it would be helpful if people did their best to register between 9:30am and 10am, if a lot of people leave it to the last minute it makes it more difficult for the organisers with regard to starting race on time. |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 21, 1:02PM | And registration will take place at Talyors!! |
| Gareth Little | Jan 21, 7:01PM | Can the person who has a car seat booked in my car from Blackrock passing through sandyford industrial estate give me a shout to organise details. o87 957 32I6, thx |
| Brenda Malley | Jan 21, 7:53PM | Would it be ok for me to start early and time myself, as it will probably take me about 2 hours to finish? What time do you expect the course to be marked? Thanks, Brenda |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 21, 8:18PM | Hi Brenda, no problem with you starting early and self timing. What time will you be at Taylors for registration? The course markers will be heading out at around 9am. |
| Brenda Malley | Jan 21, 8:22PM | Thanks Dermot, I expect to be at registration by 9.30, and my husband will drop me off at Ticknock around 10. I'll set off then if that's ok. |
| Rene Borg | Jan 22, 2:55PM | Team results are up. |
| Brian Fortune | Jan 22, 3:46PM | Great race! Thanks everyone! |
| Geraldine O'Shea | Jan 22, 5:54PM | Thanks to everyone involved in organising today's race. I did an early start so can't claim the time allocated to me in the results (unfortunately). Also followed a slightly different course towards the end so best to put me down as a DNF. Rene, this affects the Crusaders ladies team result so could you amend ? Thanks a million, sorry for the hassle! |
| Dermot Murphy | Jan 22, 5:57PM | What a lovely morning for a run in the hills! Thanks to all volunteers who all contributed to smoothly organised race, especially to Brendan and Henny for doing a great job in marking the route. Also a general thanks to all runners who arrived to registration in a timely and car pooled/jogged up to car park as requested beforehand - this also contribution to the smooth running of today's race - same next time please! |
| Zoran Skrba | Jan 22, 8:27PM | The base and race points are the same for this race. Is this correct? |
| Eoin Keith | Jan 22, 8:28PM | Thanks Zoran. No, they should be different. I'm looking in to it. |
| Rene Borg | Jan 23, 3:35PM | That's changed Geraldine. |
| Geraldine O'Shea | Jan 23, 4:48PM | Thanks Rene! |
| Liam Dunne | Jan 24, 2:29PM | Well done to organisers and helpers for a great race on sat. Well worth the drive up from Laois and really enjoyed my first experience of Irish mountain running, very friendly atmosphere in very picturesque setting.I look forward to a few more races in the 2011 calendar. Also well done to Eoin on winning, maybe next time! |
