The Dysart Dash SEL race page has been updated. Race will take place on 24th March at 11am in Dysart Woods, Co Laois. The route has been revised this year and will be approx. 6.5km with 250m of ascent . Please see route map on race page. Entries will open the week before the race.
Last year's inaugural race got great numbers , so here's hoping for the same again .


I'd be very grateful if we could get some volunteers signed up. Please sign up on race event page .

Many thanks all
