Visiting Clare from US

AuthorDateMessage
Derek HammelFeb 23 2017, 3:59pmHello - new to the forum. I will be visiting based just outside of Ennis for 7-10 days at the end of April and would love to learn about trail/mountain runs/events from 5k to 20k or so in that area.

Any information or links would be greatly appreciated.

Events are viewable from the home-page. No events listed for Clare per se, but if you were prepared to drive there is a couple in the Munster area.
Apr 19 Slievereagh (Kilfinnane) 7k,
Apr 29 Ballyhoura Trail (half, full & ultra marathon)

You might find details of other races (mainly road) here:-
munsterrunning.blogspot.com

Otherwise Munster colleagues reading this might direct you to nice trails in the Clare area.

Regards,

Mick

There's also a conversation on Facebook with about 40/50 trail and mountain runners in the SW, know one woman on it who works in Shannon so I can ask her. I'm on the Reeks a lot of weekends, 2 hours from Ennis but if I'm out on it and you like the idea of tackling the highest in the country let me know...
