| Elaine Casey | Sep 6 2024, 11:13pm | Hi, does anyone know what the short distance is for this one? Thankd |
| Andy Keeling | Sep 7 2024, 6:55am | Hi Elaine. Last year the short was 7.6k. I'd say it's going to be the same again. |
| Brian Furey | Sep 7 2024, 4:13pm | Hi Elaine, Yes same 2 courses as last year The short course is the same one that was used for the Maulin night race back in the Spring. I'll update the race details in the coming weeks. Need to chat to committee make sure all ok. Will need more volunteers, more then last year as need more car parking marshals this year Thanks Brian |
| Robbie Williams | Sep 7 2024, 7:03pm | Is there a junior course lads |
| Brian Furey | Sep 7 2024, 7:30pm | I don't see why not Robbie. Will confirm on that. |
| Brian Furey | Sep 8 2024, 9:40pm | As regards Junior course, the committee are going to consider options over the next few weeks but as off now we plan only to allow 15 years old and up to run. Juniors over 15 can run the short course (which will be 7kms) This race is very limited in parking. We had major issues last year with people parking and blocking people's house and also parking along the narrow road. This year there will be more parking marshalls to enforce parking. Please plan to car pool with other runners and friends that are racing. There are 4 good places to meet people to car pool from: 1. Location of AGM and food after race: Palmerston Rugby club Kilternan D18DC56. 2. Any of the Djouce woods car parks 3. Plucks in Kilmacanogue 4. Enniskerry village (public car park) There will be 3 race courses on the day: 1. Early long course 10.30 am 2. Long course 11.00 am 3. Short course 11.05 am ( or 5 mins after start of main course). Lilian has informed that AGM will be held in Palmerston Rugby club in Kilternan. We will also do prize giving and food there. Thanks, Brian |
