| Robbie Williams | Apr 22 2023, 12:56pm | Early start for half 10am MUST LEAVE WITH START OF MARSHAL |
| Patrick Carroll | Apr 24 2023, 2:17pm | How's it going, Thanks for throwing the route up, very handy. A question for anyone who is familiar with the route - Do you think something like X-Talons or Trailfly's would be needed or would you get away with a bit less grip and more cushioning? Sound, Patrick |
| Deirdre Galvin | Apr 24 2023, 2:20pm | Hi Patrick, My memory is of a lot of hardpacked surfaces. So my preference would be a bit of cushion. Yes, some grip will help but it's not open mountain. Deirdre |
| Edel Hennessy | Apr 24 2023, 3:43pm | Hi Patrick, I was out yesterday on some of the route. There was a few very small patches of mud through the trees but I would going for cushioning rather than grip. Some of those patches may even be dried up by the weekend if this weather holds. Lots of hard packed surfaces. It's looking good! Edel |
| Andrew Howard | Apr 24 2023, 4:10pm | Speaking of cushioning, if anyone is looking for an unused pair of recently bought Speedgoat 5's, Size 11.5 in the flaming red/orange colour, drop me a message back! |
| Patrick Carroll | Apr 24 2023, 8:30pm | Thanks very much Deirdre & Edel! |

| Bernard Healy | Apr 28 2023, 10:31am | Can I still collect my race number before the start. I haven't been to any events this year so I haven't been able to collect it. |

| Barbara Gill | Apr 28 2023, 4:00pm | Just to confirm can I start the 1/2 at 10am tomorrow morning? and if so do I just check in etc. Thanks |
