Brian Mullins | May 11 2025, 7:32pm | A thoroughly baked day out on Slievenamon today. Thanks to Eugene and all the volunteers for a seamless operation. It was great to see the large number of juniors out for the trial race and it restores ones faith in humanity that not every youngster has been lost to social media!!! Congrats to the winners and those juniors that will be selected from the trial race, the future of running up mountains is in fine fettle judging by the strong performances out there today. |

Antonin Kieffer | May 11 2025, 9:53pm | Thanks for organising the race. One thing, the short race actually departed at 11.30 so you need to add 10 min to Madeleine Kieffer time if that’s possible. Tks |
