| Martin Bagnall | Jun 21 2018, 11:11am | Thank you to those who have volunteered to date. More volunteers are needed, in particular a Race Marker, Laptop Operator and lots of non-running helpers. |
| Martin Bagnall | Jun 26 2018, 2:37pm | I still need a Race Marker, Laptop Operator and helpers for this race. Please volunteer if you can. |
| Mike Jordan | Jul 1 2018, 1:51pm | I can mark the course Martin. I can stay up and be summit marshall and de-mark the course on the way back. |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 1 2018, 5:47pm | Great, thanks Mike, that'd be great. |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 1 2018, 5:49pm | A Laptop Operator is still needed plus 2-3 non running helpers, thanks. |
| Derek Weston | Jul 2 2018, 1:31pm | Well folks. C an someone give me the lat, long coordinates for Sorrell run carpark? My eyes are watering reading those directions. Cheers! |

| Derek Weston | Jul 2 2018, 1:53pm | Thanks Gordon |
| Conor O'Farrell | Jul 2 2018, 4:13pm | Hi Martin I've signed up as a helper. I'm not sure exactly what time I will be there, hopefully before 18:30. Con |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 3 2018, 9:39am | Thanks Con and to everyone else who has volunteered. I'll be sending you an email later today. |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 3 2018, 9:57am | FAO Runners! Please have a read over the 'Organisers Instructions' ahead of the race tomorrow. If anything isn't clear, just ask! Reminder: It will be hot so please bring sunscreen and water. |
| marcus Horgan | Jul 3 2018, 3:34pm | Hi- sorry possibly dumb question I have never raced using the pre paid vouchers before. All I have is the voucher number I used to buy €50 of race tickets in January 2018 ( none used yet due to injury) Do I just bring the voucher number on the night and that is all that is needed? Best, Marcus |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 3 2018, 4:18pm | Hi Marcus, assuming that you have also registered for the year, you just need to bring your voucher with you. If you haven't raced this year yet, you'll also need to pick up your race number on the evening (you would have received an email with this number during the yearly registration). If you have forgotten it, the Laptop Operator should be able to find you on the database. |
| Tanya Sheridan | Jul 4 2018, 10:53pm | Thanks to Martin and all the volunteers for another wonderful race. The route is spectacular - and all the organisation was flawless. Thanks Mike for the towels over the barbed wire and the water. |
| Siobhán Lyons | Jul 5 2018, 12:08am | Really enjoyed that race tonight. Thanks to all the volunteers and fellow runners for your help, support and encouragement, and to Mother Nature thanks for that gorgeous breeze! |
| Gary Mason81 | Jul 5 2018, 8:00am | Thanks for another great night. Excellent job from all involved |
| Richard Nunan | Jul 5 2018, 11:29am | Thanks to Martin and Team for organsing the race, weather and the Sambos at Zellers!! Great night ! |
| Martin Bagnall | Jul 5 2018, 11:52am | Thanks very much to my team of volunteers for a wonderful job last night. Special mention to Mike for ending up with a triple role of Race Marker, Summit Marshall and Water Station attendant! Thanks especially to Philip and Thomas for a great job on the laptop, despite being thrown in at the deep end! Thank you Miriam, for lending your skills with it while managing to fit a run in between. In particular, thanks very much to Vivian for bringing along his wealth of experience and for organising the field. Well done to all the runners, it may have been unusually dry ground but the heat more than made up for it, making it a challenging run! |
| Aoibheann Gaughran | Jul 5 2018, 1:17pm | Brilliant race, gorgeous route, thanks so much everyone. |
| Aoibheann Gaughran | Jul 5 2018, 1:18pm | Brilliant race, gorgeous route, thanks so much everyone. |
| Karen Devenney | Jul 5 2018, 9:40pm | Fantastic race last night, my first time making it to Sorrell Hill but definitely not my last! Thanks so much to Martin & his team with a special mention to Mike, Nora & Joe at the summit...thanks for the water! Results are now up. I think there may be a few issues around short course...please email me at karen.devenney at imra dot ie Roll on Brockagh! |
| Alan Ayling | Jul 6 2018, 12:34am | Report up... |
| John McCann | Jul 6 2018, 1:36am | Great report Alan |
| Grace Egan | Jul 6 2018, 8:30am | "early starters are real people too" well that's let the cat out of the bag! Am giggling into my porridge here reading that revelation - bringbackmikeyfry! |
| Richard Church | Jul 6 2018, 4:56pm | Great report Alan. My first time running a short course with my son and still lots of fun to be had. We didn't even mind jumping out of the way of the fast ones bowling down the hill, so no worries on that score. Hamish came home full of smiles saying how friendly everyone at IMRA is ... and when you are eight years old you tell it like it is. |
| Conor O'Farrell | Jul 8 2018, 8:03pm | I just uploaded a tonne of photos from Wednesday's race, taken at the junior turning point. There may be a few duplicates there, so apologies for that. Con |
