- Organisers Instructions:
- The race will start at 1pm sharp on Sunday and registration will take place in Bweeng Community Centre from 11:45am-12:45pm. The race will cost €10 and is open to all. However, please note, there will not be a junior race at this event or a Tiny Tots, so unfortunately no one under the age of 18 can run it. However, there is access to an 800m looped running/walk area accessible from the community centre which energetic little ones can trot around. And if they haven't burnt off enough energy with that, there is also a playground which families can use.
If you have already run an IMRA race this year, please bring the race number assigned to you at that race as it is valid for the rest of the 2015 season.
However, If this is your first IMRA race of 2015, please aware that ALL race participants MUST purchase IMRA membership for 2015 and cost is €10 per person for the 2015 calendar year. Please note this is a separate one-off yearly payment, in addition to race cost. Please download the membership form, print and bring filled out form to race (leave the race number field blank - you will be allocated a race number for 2015 on the day). This race number is to kept and used in all subsequent 2015 races.
Also, as of the start of January, it is MANDATORY to carry a rain jacket for ALL IMRA races. PLEASE note that under our new national rules, you cannot be allowed to race officially without this ... no exceptions.

Volunteers (Non-Running)
You need to have done 2 non-running volunteer roles in a calendar year to qualify for end of year prize
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
