Race 7 takes place on the Scalp with the altered start of last year. With the pressure of numbers start takes place on track at TOP of forest, finish as usual at the bottom of the wood by the main road.
We are very lucky to have been given permission to use the overflow parking of the Kilternan Sports Hotel. However this permission comes with strict conditions, we are restricted to overflow car park only so spaces are quite limited and are reminded not to block access to tennis courts as we did last year. Palmers have also given permission for people carpooling to leave cars there. However in order not to swamp their regular customers car-pooling from the city (or Dundrum) makes more sense. Don’t forget the 44 bus passes by the venue. Runners are asked not to approach Kilternan Hotel, and should do their warm-up and ablutions in the forest. Only runners in full cars are welcome to park in Kilternan Sports Hotel, there is no parking available on the main Enniskerry Road.

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
