Organisers Instructions:

As is often the case at IMRA races, car parking is limited for this event. Please car pool if possible either from town or from the prizegiving pub (Coach House in Roundwood).

We have secured parking in a field near the race start for which a small charge will be made in inverse proportion to number in the car -> more people = lower charge :-)!

All monies collected will be donated to a local charity as per the landowners choice.

To encourage and reward car pooling we will charge as follows- charge per car :-)

• Cars with 1 person = €5
• Cars with 2 people = €4
• Cars with 3 people = €3
• Cars with 4 or more = €2

 

Please park following the marshals' instructions.'

Prizegiving Location:

Volunteers (Running)

Check with race director if they have a need for people volunteering and running. Race directors need a minimum number of people available throughout the race to make the race work so non-running volunteers are preferable. While it can be helpful, volunteering in a volunteer and race capacity does not count towards qualifying for end of year prize
