| Stephen O Keeffe | May 6 2024, 7:17pm | Hi. Is the mandatory kit the same for the short course as it is for the long. |
| Conor McElroy | May 7 2024, 2:49pm | Hi Stephen If conditions look suitable then we may go with mandatory kit B for the short course. Please still bring Kit C with you just in case Long course will remain Kit c |
| Stephen O Keeffe | May 9 2024, 11:55am | Hi Conor. Will a map of the route on my watch be ok. I think I have everything else sorted. Haven't used a map and compass since I was in the scouts and I've forgotten how to use them correctly If not then no worries and I'll give it a miss. |
| Conor McElroy | May 9 2024, 6:22pm | Hi Stephen For the short course, map and compass won't be necessary as there will be flags on the route and a Marshall on the Tomies summit Cairn to send you back on the return leg. thanks Conor |
| Conor McElroy | May 11 2024, 3:43pm | Good evening everyone Could volunteers for this race please come at 8.45am , and bring clothing suitable for a day on open mountain. Racers: emails will be sent to you this evening The weather forecast looks perfectly clear and cool tomorrow (touch wood) but please note mandatory kit level C required. Let me take this opportunity in particular to point out that we have a stunning, easy natural woodland trail lined up for the kids run with parents @ 10am - no better place to bring younger kids trail running! See you on the trails |
