Getting There:
From Dublin City, head towards Johnnie Foxes. When you come to the traffic lights at Johnnie Foxes head south onto Barrack Road and continue onto Bridge Road (road names taken from Google maps). Approximately 1.5 kms down the road is the entrance to the car-park. This will be sign-posted and/or a marshal will be on the road to direct people in. For people coming from Wicklow and that general direction, probably best to head for Enniskerry and then Bridge Road. The lane itself is located at grid ref: O198 189............. *******There will be a parking fee of 3 Euro for single occupancy vehicles , 2 Euro multiple occupancy vehicles********PLEASE HAVE COINS READY!!*****. The Funds raised will be donated to Purple House Cancer Support Centre as per land owners request. Note: The carpark EXIT will be on the FAR END of the field................ A junior route will be facilitated. Turn-around point for juniors TBC. (usually 5km mark) Junior race starts about 1940.......... The start of the race will be at the end of the lane beside the parking entrance......... Please park following the marshals' instructions. NO PARKING is permitted on the general roadside as the road is too narrow!!!!...................... Under IMRA rules for competitors safety, it is mandatory to bring and carry a jacket that is shower and wind proof for the entire race. Any competitor seen not carrying or wearing their jacket at any stage in the race will be disqualified. There are NO exceptions to this rule!!!! Also, No headphones are permitted during any IMRA races. All competitors, and particularly those who have not competed this year already, should READ the NEW REGISTRATION GUIDELINES........ We are NO longer accepting MONEY at races. (**accept parking fee**).......... You will need to REGISTER ON-LINE for the event and for the year if this is your first race this year........ Vouchers are permitted for use at this race. If you have missed on-line registration and do not own a voucher a fellow IMRA member may sell or give a voucher punch....... Registration will close at 6pm the evening before the race to allow us print off the list of runners. If this is your first race this year, you will collect your number and timing chip which you KEEP for the year. Please bring confirmation of number and registration. If you have already run this year you will or SHOULD have your number and timing CHIP with you. Its quite a headache for the organisers if you forget these so PLEASE bring it.........Early start for 2022 will be at 7pm. (This is only if you are normally > 160%. If you are unsure if you should do an early start, just ask).

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
