| Joan Stapleton | Jun 27, 1:58PM | Hi Jane, Please include me as non-running volunteer for this one. Best regards, Joan |
| Jane Porter | Jul 4, 10:40PM | That's great Joan. See you on Sunday. |
| Gareth Little | Jul 5, 10:02PM | Cant seem to put my car on the car pool section! Anyone want a lift? I have 3 to 4 spaces and will be leaving Blackrock at about 10am and going down the N11. Let me know - garethlittle at yahoo.co.uk |
| Gareth Little | Jul 6, 12:57PM | I got my car up on the carpool section in the end. Stuart Scott has emailed and already booked a space so 2 left and maybe a 3rd if people are stuck. Thx, Gareth |
| Stuart Scott | Jul 7, 10:07AM | Hi Jane, Just to clarify - as a Championship Race, I presume the mandatory kit of jacket, hat, map, compass, whistle etc. must be brought and a decision on whether or not it must be carried will be made on the day? Thanks, Stuart. |
| Jane Porter | Jul 7, 2:11PM | Is there anyone coming down on Sunday early enough to bring down the race numbers, registration forms and first aid kit. We would like to have registration up and running by 11am. With regard to mandatory kit the answer is YES especially with regard to the jacket! Check the forum for last year's race...great reading! |
| Richie MacL | Jul 8, 3:38PM | Jane - where can i find last years forum? the mandatory kit is listed there, yes? this will be my first race if i do it - do i just bring a membership form and €€? |
| joan stapleton | Jul 8, 3:42PM | Hi Jane, what time would you like volunteers to arrive at on Sunday? I'm off work so don't email me but if you like to leave reply on forum or send me a text at zero87 99three4two8zero that'd be great. regards, Joan |
| Ken McDonagh | Jul 8, 3:56PM | The Race Kit has now found a means of transportation - thanks Justin! |
| Jane Porter | Jul 9, 10:57AM | Richie..we will have forms but if you have one filled out bring it along. As regards kit just make sure you have a light waterproof jacket in case of poor weather. Forecast is good..only the odd passing shower expected. Joan and other helpers please be there for 11am if you can. See you all tomorrow. We are off to mark the course shortly. |
| Don Short | Jul 10, 8:26AM | Jane, I've had to press the unvolunteer button this morning. Not feeling great. Sorry. Don Short |
| Lindie Naughton | Jul 11, 1:14PM | Great day at Mount Leinster - pics now up (after hours struggling with UPC's "superfast" braodband) at www.lindie.zenfolio.com. |
| Ronan Hickey | Jul 11, 2:09PM | Great photos Lindie, they really capture the action! I assume a Committee enquiry into Mr. Hanney's results is already underway? There's no way someone can come down off that boggy sh*te col and look like some sort of Daz advert. The old "Junior Turnaround" trick eh? |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 11, 2:54PM | Ha. I was a victim of the bog from my knees down thats for sure. Others seemed to have fared worse through the peat hags. Great fun. Thanks Jane & Graham for an as usual great event. |
| Zoran Skrba | Jul 11, 4:03PM | Jane and Graham, do you have the race gear (numbers, laptop, marking, frist aid) or do you know if someone has taken it after Mt. Leinster race? I need it for the race on Wed (Kippure). Thanks Z. |
| Jane Porter | Jul 11, 5:20PM | All the admin stuff and the first aid has gone back to Dublin with Tommy Galvin. We did not use the laptop. Good luck on Wednesday |

| Susan Seager | Jul 11, 9:08PM | Many thanks to Jane, Graham, the other volunteers and of course the runners for an excellent run. |
| charlie lyons | Jul 12, 8:04PM | Hi Jane, It looks like i was left off the results page. From the preliminary results i was placed in 13th place. Thanks Charlie |
| martin monaghan | Jul 12, 9:26PM | Hi Gramham just wondering was there any summit times taken last Sunday? thanks Farmer |
| Richard Nunan | Jul 12, 10:17PM | Great day at Mount Leinster !!! Thanks alot to Graham, Jane and the Volunteers for a super day and lots of Food. Great route and not a bad turnout for a LC race. |
| Jane Porter | Jul 12, 10:36PM | Charlie your result is there! With regard to turnout for a Leinster Championship, I believe it was the biggest field this year. Glad to read everyone seems to enjoy the route..forest track, runnable open mountain and a bit of pure Irish bog...a good mix! Here's to next year! |
| seamus kilcullen | Jul 19, 10:15PM | Hi graham & jane, would love to have run this year & last year,any chance you could avoid clashing with dubs matches in future? seamus |
| michael redmond | Jul 20, 2:49PM | thats a good idea,any date from the all ireland semi and you can be sure that the startled earwigs will be gone,probably for the next 20 years as well,even with flucky goals and deplorable refs decisions. |
