Route Description:
Route Map: https://www.plotaroute.com/route/169955 It is much as previous years with small diversions to avoid a very wet area at the southern end and bike trials. It is great fun, particularly the descent from the aerials! However it will be is a tough race on rough often rocky ground. Wearing of fell running shoes or similar with a good grip is highly recommended. Watch out for patches of ice! If you arrive at a junction and there is no tape you have missed a turn and should go back to the previous junction. Ticknock is a public place, be aware of other users

Volunteers (Running)

Check with race director if they have a need for people volunteering and running. Race directors need a minimum number of people available throughout the race to make the race work so non-running volunteers are preferable. While it can be helpful, volunteering in a volunteer and race capacity does not count towards qualifying for end of year prize
