| Robbie Williams | Sep 15 2019, 6:18pm | Lads, no late entry I’m afraid . It’s not fair to the volunteer IT lads to keep asking them to open reg after it has closed. |

| Patricia Blackburn | Sep 19 2019, 11:53am | Hi all half marathon runners. Thank you for signing up for this the fifth edition of the LOOP DE LOOP, we hope you will enjoy your run and your visit to the Glen of Aherlow. Reg will open at 10am for the Marathon in the community centre in Lisvernanne village.The start at 12am will be about a mile out past the iron bridge and finish will be in the village. There will be a parking attendants on duty and your cooperation would be appreciated. The course is marked with red arrows on white background and red and white tape.There are four water stops(make sure you have your own bottle as it's refill only) The course is mainly on trail with a small bit of road ,( theirs a slight change from previous years)some paths are narrow some wider:- there has been quite a bit of tree felling in the last few weeks,so their a bit rough in parts but nothing to worry about!! You have one full loop with finish back down in the village. (It's important to leave no trace and that everyone takes responsibility for their own stuff.) Mandatory kit applies and we would appreciate if you could carry your phone but its not compulsory. There are hot showers available in the club house, and hot food will be served in the hall with a choice of Beef stew, chicken curry or veg curry, with desert and tea and coffee. We will also have a free bottle of Eight Degrees beer to help wash it all down. Prize giving will begin around 4pm. There are two camp sites in the Glen which are very close and of course you have Aherlow House Hotel if you want to pamper yourself. Ballyhoura hostel is only 10 miles and Tipperary town is only 4 miles with lots of accommodation.We hope you have a safe journey and look forward to meeting you all Sat morning. |
