| Mrs U W Gavin | Mar 15 2022, 1:23pm | I’m sorry to be bothering you but I’m wondering when are entries likely to open for above race in June? I’ve just recently become a member an just asking is it likely to be weeks of a few weeks before event,I do keep checking,thank you una |
| Michael McSweeney | Mar 16 2022, 1:14pm | Welcome to IMRA Una. Normally a week or two out. Bigger races with t shirts or hats may open for entry earlier, to allow for ordering. Best advice is just keep an eye on the event details. Micheal. From the race details: "No entry details have been entered for this event yet. Entries for league events usually open a couple of weeks before the event" |
| Mrs U W Gavin | Mar 16 2022, 2:26pm | Thank you Michael |
| Derek Kiely | Mar 28 2022, 9:54am | Hi, Is this the route that is being used for the world masters in September? Thanks |
| Patricia Ryan | Mar 28 2022, 3:15pm | Yes, it is the World Masters route. Great chance to try it out. The race in June is suitable for everyone. |
| Robert Cunningham | May 29 2022, 9:39pm | Hi All, MORE VOLUNTEERS NEEDED, We are going to need at least 30 volunteers for this race as a practice run for the Masters in September. So please if you or anyone you know would volunteer it's greatly appreciated. |
| Patricia Blackburn | May 31 2022, 5:20pm | Just in case there is confusion, even though this is a test run for the world masters it is open to all ages to give the course a try out. Keep in mind that there will be an open race on 4th Sep that's the day after the championships for anyone that is outside the masters category ,i,e anyone that is under 35 and over 80 We would expect this to be a very competitive race as a lot of the international athletes will stay around for it and some of the masters usually give it another go the day after the event. Log into the masters website if you are interested www.wmmrch2022.ie |
| Fran Sexton | Jun 13 2022, 9:36am | Hi everyone. Might be a silly question but what is the distance from the finish to the carpark to get back home? Thanks |
| Stephen O Keeffe | Jun 13 2022, 10:39am | From memory of last year and with a new start location, I'd say it would be around 2.5 to 3km |
| Patricia Blackburn | Jun 14 2022, 3:40pm | Hi lads It;s more like 2k actually. Its a looped road from where ye enter the mountain so you won;t be going down the way you came up. |
| Tj Bowden | Jun 14 2022, 7:29pm | Hi. Just a quick query.. I lost my bib over the past few weeks. I am a current member of IMRA . Also I do know my race number. Can I register for races again , having lost the actual bib ?? Best regards |
| Michael McSweeney | Jun 14 2022, 8:25pm | Hi Tj. Yes you can get a replacement number at registration on Sunday. I see from your profile your first race this year was in the South East, so there's a chance your printed number will still be in the Munster van. Just arrive early and give plenty of time for reg. Best of luck Sunday. Micheal. |
| Michael McSweeney | Jun 14 2022, 8:28pm | Ps. Don't forget to do the online entry before 6pm on Saturday evening. |
| Tj Bowden | Jun 14 2022, 10:14pm | Hi Michael. Thank you for the reply. I appreciate it. Ok I'll follow that plan . Take care and best regards. Tj |
| Michael Foley | Jun 16 2022, 9:14am | Hi, I have volunteered for the this race but I am showing as a non runner, I have entered the race but am happy not to run if required, regards to all, thanks, Mick. |
| Patricia Blackburn | Jun 16 2022, 10:29pm | Hi all, Just letting you know that we will have to close registration tomorrow evening at 6. Thanks and best of luck to everyone. |
| Patricia Blackburn | Jun 16 2022, 11:25pm | We appreciate all who have volunteered and it is a credit to the organisation( imra) that so many are willing to help. While I hate turning anyone away unfortunately we will not be able to accept any more volunteers for Sunday. Don't be put off and remember that we will need around 150 volunteers in Sep so that will be a great opportunity to help out while also being part of a great event. Log into our website www.wmmrch2022.ie and register there as a volunteer or message me. Thanks again everyone. |
| Michael Kelly | Jun 16 2022, 11:44pm | Hi Patricia Is it a very technical course Up and down Thanks Mick |
| Mick Hanney | Jun 17 2022, 7:20am | Michael, Its not technical. Starts in town with some road, then a lane up to the hill, then a mix of trail, single track and open mountain. Its more uphill than down as it finishes at the cross on the hill overlooking Clonmel. |
| Mick Hanney | Jun 17 2022, 7:23am | Also, if you click on event details you'll see the map and you can opt to see the elevation details there too. There is a route description in the details. |
| Sarah Whelan | Jun 18 2022, 11:00am | Hi Trisha, I have a favour to ask, you might be able to help me. I know you must be very busy with race. I have to judge a gymnastics competition after lunch in moyle rovers clonmel tomorrow. I’m in the female over 40’s and not going till 12.15. Is there any chance you can put me in an earlier male or female group? Every 15 mins helps for me to race and get back down the cross in time. Thank you, Sarah Whelan. |
| Clara Fahey | Jun 18 2022, 12:46pm | Hi, is it possible to enter on the day? Unfortunately I missed the deadline entry |
| eelco beckers | Jun 18 2022, 5:27pm | Hi Patricia, I missed the registration as well, I thought it was by 6 tonight. Is there any way to enter, even on the day? I live in Clonmel and would hate to miss it! Thanks |

| Cathal Prior | Jun 19 2022, 5:28pm | A huge thanks to RDs Patricia and Tom, and the many volunteers today. It was very evident how much planning and preparation went into today by how well it ran. Good setup at the Hillview facilities and start area. Course markings were superb, every twist and turn was marked (especially in the woods) and marshals in good view at any junctions. Appreciated the bag drop off and collection at the finish line, nice to be able to put on a warm top before the walk back to Hillview. |
| Christopher Murnane | Jun 19 2022, 5:44pm | Thanks to everyone today, faultless organization and ill be back in September. Great cakes and spread afterwards aswell. Chris |

| Stephen O Keeffe | Jun 19 2022, 9:34pm | Is there more results to follow. Looks like my time wasn't recorded. I was the sweeper. |

| Mrs U W Gavin | Jun 19 2022, 11:21pm | Thank you all for such a well organised event.From the minute I went to registration until race ended I was supported and encouraged by organisers and volunteers,(I was so nervous doing my first race with you all) Course was well marked and adequate people along the course.Post race refreshments beautiful and t shirt beautiful.You all will host a brilliant event in September,thank you all |
| Barry Murray | Jun 20 2022, 3:19pm | Great recce race, well done all involved short report up: https://www.imra.ie/events/report/id/2229 |
| ROBERT SPEER | Jul 5 2022, 9:59am | Hi There, I'm just wondering if there were any T-Shirts left over from the race. They had run out of 'Mediums' on the day and were going to post one out to me. It was my first trail race so it would be nice to have the souvenir. No worries if there's none left. Great day out by the way!! Thanks Robert Speer |
| Patricia Blackburn | Jul 5 2022, 4:00pm | Hi all, Thank you for your feedback, delighted that you all enjoyed the day and we're well on the way for Sep. The tests that we had in place were very beneficial and will help our main event to run more smoothly. We have ordered the extra tees for those who did not get one on the day and we will post them as soon as they come in, so thank you for your patience. Looking forward to seeing all or some of you at the championships. Kind regards Tricha |
