| Peter Bell | Jul 29 2012, 7:24pm | i can do running volunteer |
| Dermot Murphy | Aug 7 2012, 9:57am | Still need plenty of volunteer for this race including all the key roles. Race can't go ahead unless the volunteers come forward... |
| Rene Borg | Aug 7 2012, 10:17am | I'll do marking and demarking too if needed. |
| Dermot Murphy | Aug 7 2012, 1:40pm | Thanks Rene. |
| Rachel Wisdom | Aug 9 2012, 12:17pm | Hi everyone, just to be aware when running in Devil's Glen, it seems to be a real hotspot for ticks. Some ticks in Ireland carry Lyme Disease which is a seriously debilitating disease but can be treated if diagnosed early. The best thing to do is make sure you check yourself everywhere after the race, and I mean everywhere, and to remove the WHOLE tick as soon as possible. You may find this website useful http://ticktalkireland.org/ Rachel. |
| John Greene | Aug 9 2012, 1:46pm | Tick remover... takes a steady hand to run downhill and remove the intruder at the same time... http://www.otom.com/how-to-remove-a-tick |
| Bob Lawlor | Aug 9 2012, 1:59pm | I can help if necessary |
| Jeff Swords | Aug 9 2012, 2:10pm | Thanks Bob, but I don't think we know each other enough yet for you to be inspecting my body for ticks. |
| Ronan Hickey | Aug 9 2012, 3:55pm | Sounds like it should be scratched Ro |
| Rene Borg | Aug 13 2012, 12:08pm | Another race preview up: http://www.championseverywhere.com/devils-glen-race-preview |
| Brian Ó Murchu | Aug 13 2012, 1:58pm | Anyone going to this race from town? Would really appreciate a lift. Brian zero87 eight973144 |
| Dermot Murphy | Aug 14 2012, 8:19am | Can all volunteers be at the race start area (car park) for 6pm - please let me know if you will be later than this so I can take it into account when I am assigning roles? |
| David Rouse | Aug 14 2012, 12:58pm | 3 seats from Donnybrook Church @6pm. Email me on daverouse at gmail . com |
| Bronagh Cheetham | Aug 14 2012, 1:43pm | Dermot, apologies but somethings come up and Im not sure I'll make it down early enough to volunteer so best count me out. I can help out after with numbers whatever and if I do happen to get there early I'll come find U to see if I can assist. Bronagh |
| John J Barry | Aug 14 2012, 3:28pm | I'll be leaving Blackrock about 5 p.m. to get there on time for volunteering duties if anybody wants a lift. I'll be hitting N11 at Leopardstown Junction Other option is to met at "Ashford House" to car pool from there - say 5:40? Zero Eight Seben 6058095 |
| David Rouse | Aug 14 2012, 10:04pm | 1 place left- email address above. |

| Steven Griffin | Aug 15 2012, 10:50am | Hi, Just wondering if the race will go ahead this evening with the storm warning? Cheers, Steve |
| Steven Griffin's Mom | Aug 15 2012, 10:55am | Steven, I told you already that you cannot go outside in the rain, go to your room this instant! |
| caitlÃn bent | Aug 15 2012, 11:29am | Not a bad question Steven. |
| Steven Griffin | Aug 15 2012, 11:42am | No, just try stop me. I'll do what I like. |
| Steven Griffen's Father | Aug 15 2012, 11:42am | Not a bad punishment either |
| John Condon | Aug 15 2012, 11:50am | Don't think a bit of wind and rain ever stopped in IMRA Race. We're hardcore we are. |
| John J Barry | Aug 15 2012, 1:18pm | We just need a nice comfortable van for the Laptop operators(s) to sit in dry comfort and watch the world run by :-) Jimmy? (we can sit on the spare hoodies ) |
| Dermot Murphy | Aug 15 2012, 1:19pm | The race will definitely go ahead, just in case anyone is wondering. The route is in a forest, so reasonable protection from the elements, which are due to improve later anyway. |
| Eanna Cunnane | Aug 15 2012, 1:38pm | Masochist that I am, I was planning on biking out to this race from Dublin. The gale force winds have me reconsidering how wise that is, so if anyone has space for a last minute life, please let me know - eanna dot cunnane at gmail dotcom |
| Gareth Little | Aug 15 2012, 2:26pm | I'll have sponsorship cards for the Mountain Rescue benefit race next Wednesday with me at tonight’s race. Just give me a shout if you want one. Thanks, Gareth |
| Peter O'Farrell | Aug 15 2012, 11:42pm | Class race course, great fun all the way, many thanks to all the volunteers and to Rene's prerace spiel on his fine website for whetting my appetite. |
| claire mcentee | Aug 16 2012, 11:28am | thanks a million to all the volunteers for coming out in that weather. the course was class and GREAT craic! |
| John Ahern | Aug 16 2012, 3:37pm | Thanks to those who stopped to check on me when I banged my head off that tree trunk crossing the path down by the river. I really hit it with an almighty bang. Sorry to have added a minute onto all your times! |
| jimmy synnott | Aug 17 2012, 7:41am | A john is that the same tree trunk that every one was asked to look out for at the race start .See you found it then.hope head is ok Cheers jimmy |
| John Ahern | Aug 17 2012, 8:52am | I'm sure we were warned about it but it was v windy at race start and Rene's voice didnt carry very well so I missed that specific warning. I should have remembered that trunk from previous years. Oh well, no long term harm done. My neck is still stiff but it'll be fine in a couple of days I'm sure. As I think about it, I think there was warning tape on that trunk on previous years - I think it would be a good idea to stick a bit on when we're next back in Devil's Glen. Anyway, great season. See you all next year! |
| Red & White Warning tape | Aug 17 2012, 10:39am | There was a few of us red & white warning tape on and around that branch. Have you been to Specsavers recently? |
