| Siobhán Lyons | Jun 22 2019, 9:45am | I did Powerscourt uphill in just under an hour last week and have no nav skills should I try Carrauntoohil or not? Advise appreciated... |
| Paul Smyth | Jun 22 2019, 11:29am | There isn't really any navigation required as there is a track/path all the way. You just need to make sure you go up and down by the zig-zag path rather than the Devil's Ladder. |
| Siobhán Lyons | Jun 22 2019, 12:18pm | Hi Paul thanks so much for the reply, based on my time going up Powerscourt uphill, do you think I'd make cutoff? |
| Siobhán Lyons | Jun 22 2019, 12:19pm | Hi Paul thanks so much for the reply, based on my time going up Powerscourt uphill, do you think I'd make cutoff? |
| Paul Smyth | Jun 22 2019, 12:42pm | I would say yes. |
| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 23 2019, 2:38pm | Hi Siobhan Jenny here. I’m in west cork week Of race and seriously Thinking of race. I’m slower Than you but also have no Nav skills. If you were Interested we could go Together as partners In crime?! |
| Robbie Williams | Jun 24 2019, 5:41am | Lads, be aware registration closes for this event on Saturday next. Please sign up ASAP as need to confirm singlet numbers Thank you |
| Siobhán Lyons | Jun 24 2019, 8:42am | Entered, thanks everyone. Jenny I'd be happy to buddy up but the challenge would be making it to top of zigzag before 1hr15 cutoff, otherwise we have to turn back, do you think you could make that deadline? |
| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 24 2019, 8:45am | That a good question Siobhan I could certainly Try. Robbie I average 163 percent And do early starts at league Races. However I did Manage 159 percent recently!! In your experience would I be ok To take it on? I could certainly Give it my best shot I suppose!? Jenny ps any advice welcome |
| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 24 2019, 4:58pm | I’ve signed up thanks Jenny |
| Robbie Williams | Jun 25 2019, 9:07am | Hi Jenny I’m afraid I wouldn’t have a clue, I did pass maths so the numbers mean nothing to me ! I would just try hard ! You can start early if you like but ye would have to go after last 1pm finisher on results I’ll leave it up to ye. The reason for the cut off is so that volunteers aren’t out there all day. See ye there !! |
| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 25 2019, 10:19am | Hi Robbie thanks For the response. I would love to Do an early start please. 12? 11:30? Whatever you think I’m happy to do 11 either thanks Jenny |

| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 27 2019, 6:18am | Hi Robbie after talking To a few last night at the Leinster league I reckon even a half hour early Start would be perfect. Could I start at 1230? Thanks! Jenny |
| Jenny Uí Shé | Jun 27 2019, 6:24am | Hi Siobhan Will be lovely to see you down there . I would hate to hold you up so with the Early start and Bernard fortune Assures me he will make sure I get down ok I think it’ll be fine! Enjoy and see you there Jenny |

Already committed to travelling down from Co Antrim (time booked off work and accommodation sorted etc) anything you can do to help me enter would be much appreciated. Sorry for inconvenience. |

| Robbie Williams | Jul 8 2019, 5:16pm | Great report BARRY Thanks for that. Can a say a huge thank you to all the volunteers.. Máire O Sullivan, Johnny O Flynn, Rob Mc Evoy, Brian Byrne, Paul Deane (and son :) ), Henry Browne, Martin Hennessey, the staff at Cronins Yard, and most of all a great band of runners who all enjoyed and pushed themselves in humid conditions. We also like to thank the Reeks Access Forum Committee for making it possible and for their constant work on the trails on the area. |
