- Getting There:
- The gathering place for the race will be O Riadas Bar and Resturaunt which is on the right hand side about 4 miles out of Castleisland on the Tralee road at grid ref Q94290-12042, for people coming from the Abbeyfeale side they will no longer go through Castleisland but will take the by pass for Tralee, this will bring them onto a roundabout about half a mile on the Tralee side of Castleisland and from there to O Riadas is aprox 3 miles
- Organisers Instructions:
- From O Riadas to the junction where the race will start is about .8 of a mile so a nice warm up, the run to O Riadas from the finish is aprox 1.5 mile but all downhill on road. At the start of the race there will be 1 mile of tar road and then half a mile of forest road and after that it will be a lot of narrow winding trail so a good position will be important at the end of the road as passing will be difficult but by no means impossible in a large section of the course after this.
- Prizegiving Location:
- O Riadas Bar
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
