| Brian O Murchu | Jul 14 2016, 6:39pm | As League Director of this years Trail League, I am delighted to introduce the first race in the series is the popular Glen of the Downs. Set for July 27th and Race Directed by Paul Smyth. All three races will have similar prizes & categories to the Leinster League. Best three out of three races for league positions |
| Paul Smyth | Jul 23 2016, 10:38am | We still need a laptop operator and first aider for this race. |
| Paul Smyth | Jul 24 2016, 8:13pm | I need a race marker and either a laptop operator or a first aider. |
| Turlough Conway | Jul 25 2016, 3:42pm | Hi Folks. Looking for a lift for this race. Deans Grange area, or N11. Thks |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 25 2016, 5:50pm | Turlough - I can pick you up. I'll be heading south after race however. Hopefully someone is heading north afterwards and can oblige. |
| Paul Grant | Jul 25 2016, 6:02pm | Do you need more volunteers for the race Wednesday Paul? I haven't done laptop operator before and I don't have first aid training but happy to help mark the course or shadow laptop operator. |
| James Heggie | Jul 26 2016, 12:08am | Is it junction 9 you leave the N11 for Glen of the downs race? |
| Turlough Conway | Jul 26 2016, 9:29am | Thanks Mick. Ill be in touch today. |
| Brian O Murchu | Jul 26 2016, 11:49am | Pre-reg closes 18:00 today! Yearbooks purchased will be available for collection at race registration |
| Paul Smyth | Jul 26 2016, 11:58am | @James I believe it is junction 9 but none of the maps I have show a junction number (including the OS ones!). On Google Street view the sign is partially obscured but seems to be a 9. |
| Kevin O'Riordan | Jul 26 2016, 12:08pm | It's junction 9 alright. Follow the signs for Glenview Hotel. |
| Caoimhín MacMaoláin | Jul 26 2016, 5:25pm | Will there be a short course for the under 16s for this race please? Thanks. |
| Brian O Murchu | Jul 26 2016, 10:04pm | . |
| Brian O Murchu | Jul 26 2016, 10:04pm | Hi Caoimhin, We'll only be able to facilitate ages 16+ tomorrow, sorry no 5k option |
| Laura Mullins | Jul 27 2016, 10:48am | Hi there, I am a new IMRE member and just purchased a voucher today. Is it possible to still join the race tonight or is it too late? Thanks in advance! |
| Fiona Hyland | Jul 27 2016, 10:48am | @everyone This is my first run with IMRA, i have paid my annual fee just wondering where you usually meet? Any way I can meet there as I am coming from work and will probably be pressed for time? |
| Paul Smyth | Jul 27 2016, 11:18am | @Laura: Yes, you can run today. Just bring the confirmation emails for your membership and the vouchers and we'll issue you with your race number and vouchers at registration this evening. |
| Paul Smyth | Jul 27 2016, 11:28am | @Fiona: Not entirely sure what you are asking. Each race takes place in a different location. Directions to the Glen of the Downs race are on the event details page. If you are asking about car pooling on the other hand then you can use the car pooling section on the event details page for the race. If you are looking for a lift and none of the cars advertised on the car pooling section are suitable then you could post a request for lift here in the forum. |
| Chris Keeling | Jul 27 2016, 2:13pm | Hi..I am a paid up Registered member for 2016 and I intended running this evening. I don't have any vouchers and the €7 online entry option, I think closed at 6pm yesterday. Does that mean unless I buy a €50 book of vouchers I can't run? |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 27 2016, 3:11pm | Chris - or agree with another runner to buy one of their vouchers off them. |
| Chris Keeling | Jul 27 2016, 4:55pm | Thanks Mick |
| Lindsey Heppenstall | Jul 28 2016, 12:17am | Hi there was a jacket in a pouch and a number left behind at the start as we went up to help an injured runner. Number 368 and a orange jacket in black pouch. Did anyone pick these up Thanks |
| Brian O Murchu | Jul 30 2016, 7:19pm | Was it not claimed at the raffle..... |
| Paul Smyth | Aug 2 2016, 10:50am | @Lindsey, your jacket and number were found after the event. They should be in the laptop bag along with another piece of lost property found after the race. If you ask at this Weds. event you should be able to get it back. |
| Paul Smyth | Aug 2 2016, 11:11am | <b>Lost Property</b> A small red top (zipped, I think) was found after the event. It's in the IMRA laptop bag so whoever owns it should be able to claim it at Weds. race. |
| Paul Smyth | Aug 2 2016, 11:22am | Now that the website it back up I want to take this opportunity to thank all the volunteers for their help in making last Weds. race a success: James Cahill (Results Tzar!) Ronan Motyer Paul Grant Ian O'Kane Christopher Willoughby Chris Mark Elaine McGreal Trevor Kerley Brian Farren Sharon Phibbs Maura Ginty Ronan Lynch |
| Pól Ó Murchú | Aug 2 2016, 11:51am | I have these Lindsey. |
| Brendan Lawlor | Aug 2 2016, 12:06pm | Well done and thank you to Paul Smyth and his team of volunteers - another first time Race Director who did a superb job on his debut! |
