Nav. Challenge Maps- Expression of Interest.

Clare Keeley | Jul 26 2019, 12:09am | The Nav. Challenge is returning to the earlier version where runners have to supply their own maps. This will require quite an outlay for anyone doing all races as each race requires a different map. Barry Dalby from East West Mapping has agreed a sale or return for the maps for the three Nav. Challenges (with thanks to Gaven and Joe!). Barry is offering to supply the maps at 66% of retail price. It is hoped that the maps will be sold via “purchase item” in the IMRA shop for a defined period of time. The three maps required for the Nav. Challenge this year are Lugnaquilla & Glendalough 25k, Dublin Mountains 30k and West Wicklow 30k. This forum post is to get an idea how many runners competing in the Nav.Challenge races would be interested in the deal to gauge how many maps we might need?? What do you all think??!! Clare. |
Graham K. Bushe | Jul 26 2019, 12:28am | Hi Clare, count me in for a set please. This is a great idea and offer, thanks. Graham |
Mick Hanney | Jul 26 2019, 7:10am | A great initiative. I think my maps are latest stock but must check. Creating interest list:- 1. Graham Bushe - full set |
John Condon | Jul 26 2019, 8:37am | Hi Clare, Can you put me down for the Dublin Mountains and West Wicklow? Thanks. |
Mick Hanney | Jul 26 2019, 10:31am | Creating interest list (add name and map(s) :- 1. Graham Bushe - full set 2. John Condon - Dublin Mountains & West Wicklow |
Dave Docherty | Jul 26 2019, 10:33am | I probably won't make the races but would like to own a set of maps. What's the cost roughly ish? |
Avril Challoner | Jul 26 2019, 11:00am | don't think I can make all the challenges (hoping to make at least one) but my maps have had some weather related wear and tear so would be interested in a full shiny new set. |
Mick Hanney | Jul 26 2019, 11:44am | As an example, the tetail price of an un-laminated map is 12.50. IMRA rate is likely to be c 8.25 If we supplied the maps at our event we can save on P&P costs. Otherwise P&P costs would need to be added. |
Justin Rea | Jul 26 2019, 11:56am | Creating interest list (add name and map(s) :- 1. Graham Bushe - full set 2. John Condon - Dublin Mountains & West Wicklow 3. Justin Rea - full set (laminated) |

Clare Keeley | Jul 26 2019, 4:24pm | Great to see the interest! This post on the forum is to gauge the interest only, runners will have to order "item for purchase" (if there is adequate interest)when it goes live. Lugnaquilla & Glendalough 30k LAMINATED version €19.50 with 66% discount = €12.87. Lugnaquilla & Glendalough 30k PAPER version €12.50 with 66% discount €8.25 Wicklow Mountains West 30k PAPER ONLY version available €9.95 with 66% discount €6.57 Dublin and North Wicklow 30k PAPER ONLY version available €9.95 with 66% discount €6.57. John Condon-you are getting a string to tie yours around your neck so it doesn't blow away on you...I want to get home for my dinner!! |

Clare Keeley | Jul 26 2019, 6:12pm | **EDIT re:price of maps** Dublin Mts and Wicklow West €7 each sold separately Lugnaquilla/Glendalough laminated €14 Collectively as a set €28.00. |
Mick Hanney | Jul 26 2019, 6:14pm | As per Clare's post, we have clarified that only the L/G map comes in a laminated option at the moment. Assuming suitable interest - and we'd need more names to make this worthwhile (so keeping adding) - we can add the maps to the purchase option and we should look to provide them at the nav races OR to a friend of theirs who is going to the Navs - to avoid having to layer on P&P costs. |

Brendan Lawlor | Jul 26 2019, 6:30pm | This is a fantastic idea and a super offer. Whether you plan to do the Nav Challenge races or not it is well worth investing in some or all of these maps, which are excellent. Even novice and beginner hill runners can benefit from an occasional look at a real map.. Google doesn't hack it in the hills! Its still no guarantee you won't get lost however ... :) |

Mick Hanney | Jul 27 2019, 8:10am | Hi, We have established that the interest is there in this initiative, so I have asked the webmaster to add the maps on as purchase items for a few weeks. I'll post as soon as that is done. People will be able to select the maps they want. Regards, Mick |

Mick Hanney | Jul 28 2019, 7:40pm | Hi Folks, You can stop adding names to the list as we have established that there is a strong interest for this. Thanks to the committee for facilitating this initiative. Each of the maps are available to purchase on the IMRA Purchase products, once you log into MyIMRA. I will collate the orders and deliver them to the Nav events. If people cannot make a Nav event or if they don't have someone to collect for them, let me know as we'll have to organise p&p (additional charge may apply). Cheers. Mick |
Mick Hanney | Jul 30 2019, 1:27pm | Thanks to those that have bought already. I'd encourage others to get your purchases of maps in early. The earlier I get a feel for orders coming in the earlier I can forecast demand and get stock in. If I can do that I can try get them to people at earlier events in person. Still waiting for the Lug/Glendalough non-laminated map to be added to shop for those who want that. |
Brian Wynne | Jul 30 2019, 6:42pm | Is it limited to one full set per person? Doesn't appear to give an option for two. |
Rory Wallace | Jul 30 2019, 6:56pm | Thanks mick but I may just collect from local bookshop to make things easier this summer. btw the East West map series is well recommended, much better than harveys or sheet 56. |
Mick Hanney | Jul 30 2019, 7:59pm | It wouldn't have occurred to me that some people would want more than 1 of a type. In any event the purchase option with IMRA for any item - map or event - is limited to 1 per myimra login I'm afraid. Others can log in and buy their own? |
Paul Smyth | Jul 30 2019, 8:20pm | I've bought race vouchers twice this year and they are listed as the same item so I'm presuming there is an option on the items for sale that allows specifying whether an item can be purchased more than once? |
Paul Smyth | Jul 30 2019, 8:26pm | On a related note... It's potentially confusing having the words 'Event Entry' on the map purchase items. someone is sure to think they are purchasing an entry to the event rather than just the map or might think that the map purchase also includes the event entry. Might be better to edit the item to remove the words 'Event Entry'. |
Brian Wynne | Jul 30 2019, 8:29pm | I was thinking of getting a gift of the maps for a fellow IMRA member as well as my own set but no big deal. Didn't see any option for ordering two of each. |
Mick Hanney | Jul 31 2019, 9:57am | @Paul - I agree the wording is confusing. I have asked the webmaster to change it from Race Entry to Map in all cases. Thanks. |
Stuart Scott | Jul 31 2019, 10:30am | Brian, can you do a separate transaction for each map? I think that was what Paul was alluding to with the race vouchers. Well done to all involved with this excellent venture, not least Barry Dalby for his support of IMRA over the years. Could the committee purchase a few to use as spot prizes in future races too? It's something every IMRA member should have in their pocket! |
John J Barry | Jul 31 2019, 2:15pm | agree 100% with Start regarding Spot Prizes. I 'won' the Glendalough map last week which I was delighted with. It will be put to great use.. |
Mick Hanney | Aug 2 2019, 8:13am | Plenty of interest in the maps. Thanks for the early orders. I'm going to try take delivery of stock early for early distribution if and when I can. |
John Condon | Aug 2 2019, 9:59am | Hi Mick, had a look on the purchase page. It says the Unlaminated Lug map is sold out. Are we getting more stock? |
Mick Hanney | Aug 2 2019, 11:18am | Hi, I thought for a sec that Paul had bought all the stock ;-) I'll get that sorted. Regards, Mick |
Mick Hanney | Aug 2 2019, 11:29am | The webmaster sorted this John, should be available for you. Make sure you hold onto it tightly! |
Paul Smyth | Aug 2 2019, 11:42am | Hey! I only bought one - at least I think I only bought one. :) |
Andrew Hanney | Aug 2 2019, 11:50am | John, sure you must know every inch of Lug at this stage ;) |
John Condon | Aug 2 2019, 12:41pm | Thanks for the painful reminder there lads ;) |
Mick Hanney | Aug 2 2019, 6:02pm | I have taken delivery of a batch of maps. I intend being at the next few races so if you have purchased look out for me. Given the demand I will likely have to restock but I have enough to be getting on with. |
Shane Lynch | Aug 3 2019, 3:44pm | For anyone receiving the paper maps before the day of the Nav Challenges - I have found that carefully covering the map on both sides with clear contact book film works really well for waterproofing. At the Nav challenges - A good pen to mark on the checkpoints onto the map is a permanent red fine tip, staedtler makes a good one - hopefully this is helpful to one or two reading! |
henry barry | Aug 12 2019, 5:32pm | Hi , What are the options for collecting maps before the first nav challenge . i probably wont make any imra events this week . Thanks Henry |
Mick Hanney | Aug 12 2019, 6:41pm | Hi, I have some maps on hand but I'm waiting for the shop to close the sale of the maps at the end of this week to get the rest of the order fulfilled, in which case I'll be well stocked up Weds week. I'll be at the race this Weds with what I have, first come first serve. If people want others to collect them for them that's fine too. Regards, Mick |
Mick Hanney | Aug 13 2019, 3:40pm | I'll have a stock of maps with me on Weds. So you can collect or get a friend to collect. For logistical reasons I've had to cap the no. maps sold. Its been a very popular initiative with an avg of 30 maps sold for each of the navs. Some of the Lug unlaminated maps available as of now. |
Mick Hanney | Sep 8 2019, 7:12pm | Drumgoff next week is last chance for a while for any remaining purchased maps to be picked up. |
