| Linda Carroll | May 5 2023, 7:43pm | Hi . I am a little nervous about registering for this event , I so want to do it but I am wondering, is there a possibility of getting lost , I am not the best with trying to follow routes on my watch . Also second question is there a cut of time you have to make for the marathon , I not the fastest runner either . Thanks Linda |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 5 2023, 10:52pm | Hi Linda, Thanks for posting the above questions. There is no cut off time for the Marathon and Half-marathon races, as the Slieve Bloom Way SBW(Ultra) race will still be taking place and Marshalls will be on checkpoints anyway. This might help with some of your concern. As with other long distance trails, the SBW is fully way marked, in this case with yellow men. The Marathon route has three deviations from the yellow markers, which will be highlighted/signposted and these deviations will be well marked on the day for the marathon. Saying all this there is FB group set up to help people meet others to recce the route and ask questions to familiarise themselves with it. As with any marathon in a mountain and trail environment it can be quite physically and mentally engaging. If anyone is not confident of their abilities from a safety point of view to run the marathon. The Half-marathon (25km) while still quite demanding might be a more sensible option. The marathon route is a really pleasant route with a mix of single track, mountain trails, boardwalks, fire-road and some road. It is picturesque in places, hugging the river barrow and progressing onto the ridge of Capard, passing through Monicknew, and crossing the Silver River before finishing in Clonaslee at Brittas Woods. It is a very runnable course with 1000m of height gain while also has technical ground in places. |
| Johan van der Merwe | May 6 2023, 7:11pm | Hi Linda I ran the route from Glenbarrow to Kinnitty today and found the route marked very clearly all the way. The section of Ridge of Cappard was fairly muddy but the rest was dry. Regards Johan |
| Linda Carroll | May 6 2023, 8:15pm | Thanks for the messages everyone. I hope to get up to recce the route in the next few weeks. Thanks |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 16 2023, 10:51pm | The IMRA Slieve Bloom Marathon has plenty of varied terrain. It has great single track sections at Glenbarrow, Monicknew and along the Silver River. It also passes through the wonderful Kinnitty Woods and Brittas Woods. It has some open mountain, board-walk, fireroad and some regional roads too. At 43km with 1000m of ascent it's a lovely loop of the Slieve Bloom Mountains showing quite a few of the highlights. |
| Ken Cowley | May 17 2023, 9:56am | As a runner who has done most of his running in Dublin/Wicklow, but with my mother being from Roscrea, I have a big soft spot for the Slieve Blooms which are gorgeous, and are a very under-rated recreation area in our country, and superb for hiking and running. I don't live in Ireland any more so I won't be able to make it, but well done to IMRA, Gaelan and her team, and I hope it goes very well for you all on the 24th June! |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 19 2023, 9:32pm | Ken, thank you for your words of encouragement. The Slieve Blooms certainly are a great running location. I think it safe to say last year's Arderin -Clear Lake Race in the Slieve Blooms was well received and left people with a good impression of the area. Although these 3 races are a different sort they have many things to entice runners. I am certainly looking forward to the upcoming events. We have a good, enthusiastic crew organising. We have everything online for great races. At the minute we just need more volunteers for the races. People to help marshall the course /aid stations and first aiders are priority. The Arderin-Clear Lake race takes place on July 9th this year. PS. Ken you might be disappointed by my masculine build if you meet me in person :-) |
| JUDITH ROBINSON | May 22 2023, 10:17am | Hi - I am from The Mournes area & love the sound of Slieve Bloom. Do I have to purchase an IMRA membership even though I will only be entering one event? Thanks, Judith. |
| Niamh Kelly | May 22 2023, 10:29am | Hi Judith Yes, you would have to be a member of IMRA to be able to register for the event IMRA MEMBERSHIP PROCEDURE FOR 2023 All competitors must be IMRA members.

| JUDITH ROBINSON | May 22 2023, 3:47pm | Hi Niamh - many thanks! Can you suggest reasonably priced accommodation near to the startline, please? J |
| Niamh Kelly | May 22 2023, 3:59pm | Hi Judith, I do not know of any personally, but you can check out https://slievebloom.ie/where-to-stay/glamping-camping or booking.com hopefully, something to suit there |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 22 2023, 4:19pm | Hi Judith, If the villages nearby are full. An option might be to stay in a town 20mins away from Clonaslee. It might even be in the direction you plan to travel from. That way it wouldn't be too much of an inconvenience. |
| JUDITH ROBINSON | May 22 2023, 5:05pm | Thanks for replies - travelling from Newry direction. |
| JUDITH ROBINSON | May 22 2023, 7:36pm | Cheapest is £70 for one night ....any other suggstions appreciated! |
| JUDITH ROBINSON | May 22 2023, 7:36pm | Cheapest is £70 for one night ....any other suggestions appreciated! |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 22 2023, 9:14pm | Yikes! There is a problem all across Ireland at the minute with accommodation. Once upon a time cheap accommodation now has sky high prices. Before the Aherlow race last September, I camped and had the best night's sleep in a long time without the two little ones. Perhaps an Airbnb or BnB somewhere close-ish might break the journey for you. |
| Mark McInerney | May 22 2023, 9:42pm | This is why I'm buying a motorhome once I win the Lotto! Haha |
| John Healy | May 22 2023, 9:55pm | Folks I live locally. If you cant source accomodation, send me an email at jonny9936@gmail.com. Cant promise anything but Ill try to come up with possible options. |
| Eoin Kelly | May 22 2023, 10:24pm | Hi guys, any nearby camping options? Might give that a try for the night before. Thanks |
| Noel Donohoe | May 23 2023, 8:55pm | I see the start and finish are in different locations. do competitors figure out the shuttle themselves or is there a plan? I read that cars should be parked at the community hall area Clonaslee. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 24 2023, 1:25pm | Runners will be bussed from the Community Centre to the starting point near Glenbarrow Trailhead. Runners for the Marathon are asked to park at the Community Centre. Logistically and space wise there wouldn't be parking for people to leave their cars at the race start. So to avoid a number of issues we decided to arrange busses for the Marathon and Half-ish (25km) races All the details are on the event page. |
| Marlin Chettik | May 25 2023, 4:12pm | Hi, If I purchase an entry for the marathon but closer to the date I don't feel like going for that distance, will I be able to change for the 25k option? Thanks |
| Brian Smyth | May 27 2023, 1:11pm | Hi Marlin , it’s not something we encourage to be honest, as it creates more workload for our volunteers . Come see us at registration on the morning if you still feel like dropping down to 25km. I’m sure you will fly it through the marathon though ; ) Thanks , Brian |
| Gaelan Elliffe | May 31 2023, 8:30pm | I would like to make an appeal to people who might be interested in volunteering for one of the three races on June 24th in the Slieve Bloom Mountains. If this date doesn't suit the Arderin-Clear Lake race on July 9th might suit instead. We have done our best to keep costs low for the three Slieve Bloom Way races. We would really appreciate any help people can offer. It is volunteers which allow these races take place. We need first aiders, help with registration and the finish line, marshalls to help at aid stations along the route and help with refreshments. There is space for some running(racing) volunteers too. It has been great to hear the enthusiasm people have for the area. I've come across plenty of people out running on these trails in recent months. The IMRA committee have been very supportive of these three races and I'm really looking forward to welcoming people for these races. As it's not (yet)an established mountain running area I would ask anyone on the fence, thinking about maybe volunteering to consider helping out. To make the first time these events run be successful. The Slieve Bloom Mountains are very centrally located and are a short drive from large parts of the country. Entries for the Marathon and the Half-ish 25km race are still open until Saturday June 10th. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 2 2023, 10:53pm | The following group has been set up to help people find out info on the route for all three races: https://www.facebook.com/groups/875422903524842/ It might come in useful when reccing the route(sharing images etc) or arranging to meet up with others. There's a lot of info on the three relevant event pages but Feel free to ask in here. I appreciate not everyone uses FB. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 6 2023, 5:55pm | Entries for the upcoming IMRA Slieve Bloom Marathon and Half-ish Marathon(25km) taking place on June 24th, along with the chance to buy the lovely stylish t-shirt for €10 will be closing this Saturday June 10th @6pm. Please share this post with friends and running groups you think may be interested. See https://imra.ie/events/ for details on the races. It is great to hear the enthusiasm people have for these upcoming races and we are very much looking forward to welcoming runners to the wonderful mountains of Laois&Offaly. We are looking for volunteers to help out on the day. It is volunteers which allow these races to take place. We have done our best to keep the costs of the 3 races to a minimum. We greatly appreciate the help and support from the IMRA committee to get these races on the events calendar but we are seeking support from the wider IMRA community to help us ensure the races go smoothly on the day and help the area become established in trial and mountain running. We are currently looking for volunteers for the following roles: Help with registration and car parking, First Aiders A laptop operator Marshalls to help around the course and to person aid stations/bag drops Help at the finish line Help with refreshments We are looking for running and non-running volunteers. If you have questions about volunteering please feel free to reach out to any of the three race directors. Both the Marathon and Half-ish Marathon have a number of very nice scenic sections on their routes with some nice river sections on both routes. The ground is quite varied with single track, forestry tracks, board walk and some road sections. The Marathon has some mountain path/bog too. There are more details on each individual event page (linked above). The Slieve Bloom Mountains are centrally located in Ireland with many cities being a short drive away. Dublin M50 1hr drive Kilkenny 1hr drive Limerick 1hr 10mins Galway 1hr 20 |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 9 2023, 4:59pm | It nice to see lots of people signing up for the three Slieve Bloom Way Races. Can I please ask again if anyone would be able to help us out for the Half-ish 25km race or the marathon. We are looking for first aiders for both and Marshalls to help with aid stations and bag drops along the course. The half marathon is also looking for a laptop operator too. Any help is greatly appreciated. These roles are vital for the races to go ahead. Also, race entries for the half and marathon close at 6PM Saturday. Please spread the word about entries closing and our need for more volunteers. Thank you guys . |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 14 2023, 11:20pm | Sorry me again :-D Someone has kindly volunteered as a first aider for the Half-ish 25km race, however it is important we have a first aider at the marathon race also. We are still looking for a first aider for the marathon A laptop operator for the half Marshalls to help out on the day. Help at registration and with refreshments at the finish line. There is space for running volunteers also. We greatly appreciate everyone's help. It is wonderful to see the work people have put in to getting the race organised so far. We are really looking forward to welcoming everyone to the Slieve Bloom Mountains. Some of the above roles are vital for the race and others will make the organising teams roles easier and everyone's race day experience more enjoyable. Perhaps someone has the day penciled into their calendar but due to injury can't run or perhaps a family member might be travelling for the day with you and would be willing to volunteer. Please spread the word about how we are in need of more volunteers for these races. For newer runners it is a very good way to get to see what the three races are about and to get to meet people too. See the volunteering section on each event page. |
| Mark McInerney | Jun 17 2023, 8:32am | Hi folks. Not long to go now.... Can I ask when will the busses leave the community centre. Just want to make sure I give myself enough time. Many thanks in advance |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 17 2023, 2:50pm | Hi Mark, I have updated the event page with the following info: The marathon registration is from 8:30-9:00 at Clonaslee Community Centre. The bus leaves at 9:15. Cheers, Gaelan |
| Mark McInerney | Jun 17 2023, 4:19pm | Lovely work. Many thanks for all the organising. Incredible achievement with so many races on the same day. And not with an exorbitant fee like Eco this year. Well done to all involved. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 17 2023, 5:30pm | You're very welcome Mark. I can't comment on races I haven't ran. The voluntary ethos, friendly people and the not for profit set up are amongst the things which appeal to me about IMRA. All these races are made possible by volunteers. Which we still need a few more running and non running of next Saturday. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 18 2023, 11:14pm | Some points to note regarding the upcoming Slieve Bloom Way races. (see below for more detail on each item) High Viz clothing and the mandatory kit list Way Markers and navigation Livestock in fields Leave no Trace Slippy/ damaged boardwalk Very limited parking on the route With the races being one week away and with the route in great condition, we hope you are as excited about the races as we are . There is great enthusiasm out there and we have gotten feedback that peoples recces of the route have gone well. It has been wonderful to see people volunteering to help out with the three races. Thank you very much to everyone who has volunteered so far. We still have a need for more volunteers on the day. Please see recent posts on facebook and the IMRA forum. High Viz clothing and the mandatory kit list Each race event page on www.imra.ie has mandatory kit listed. The half-ish race only has a couple of items. The main item I wish to highlight is that the Marathon and Ultra races require either high viz clothing or a high viz jacket. While all 3 races have a variety of terrain there are road sections on each route. It is important you are highly visible to other road users and obey the rules of the road. Way Markers and navigation The accompanying photos show some of the great work that has been done clearing the very good way markers along the 70km route. It is important that runners know the route in advance and bring either a map or a gpx method of navigating should they take a wrong turn. We will only be additionally marking a couple of points along the route. The few deviations from the SBW the marathon takes will be clearly identified also. There are 5 printable maps available at this link: https://slievebloom.ie/walk/slieve-bloom-way It also worth reminding people, the most recent Ordnance Survey map of the area is out of date and doesn't have the correct SBW on it. It would take you on a very different route to the yellow way marked trail. Livestock in fields The three races cross working farms. If you enter a field with animals you need to walk that short section and it is very important you stick tightly to the way markers in the fields so we reduce our impact on the farms. Most of the farms have stiles but if you encounter a gate it needs to be immediately shut behind you. Leave no Trace As with all IMRA races we leave nothing behind but footprints. There will be bags for rubbish at the aid stations on the day. Anyone seen dropping rubbish on the course will be disqualified. Slippy/ damaged boardwalk As with all mountain environments lots of varied terrain is encountered. Amongst the varied terrain on these races are boardwalks. Some of which are slippy and at a couple of points near the Ridge of Capard the board walk is damaged. Due caution needs to be exercised. (see the accompanying photo) Very limited parking on the route There is limited parking at numerous locations on the SBW. We are providing busses for runners to the start of the races. If you decide to not use them, you need to arrange a drop off. We can't leave cars parked at Glenbarrow, Kinnitty or Cadamstown. There is very limited parking at these locations. We also ask people not to drive up to the check point at Glenkeen. If anyone needs assistance from here, our team will shuttle them home. There is a large section of road here and it would result in cars driving against runners. We are making our final plans in the coming week. There will be emails sent out to all runners later in the week. Can I also remind people that the IMRA forum is the primary location for communication for these three races. Best of luck with your final race preparations. |
| Avril Challoner | Jun 19 2023, 9:28am | Is a high fluorescent t-shirt sufficient? If not, do you want us to just wear the high-vis on the road sections or do they have to be worn throughout the race? Looking forward to the race! |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 20 2023, 1:20am | Hi Avril, High visibility clothing is sufficient. The Marathon route travels along the R440 for almost 4km. It is sensible to wear high visibility clothing on this road amongst other road crossings. See you on Saturday, Gaelan |
| Conor Lucey | Jun 20 2023, 10:29pm | Hi Im just looking to see if there’s any last minute entries left? Thanks Conor |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 21 2023, 8:10am | Sorry Conor, I'm afraid not. But if you are free and would like to meet some people and cheer others on, we would find space for you to volunteer for a few hours, if you would like. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 21 2023, 8:13am | Thank you to all the volunteers who have very kindly offered to help with these three races. Your help is greatly appreciated. It is through volunteers we can organise these races. I have now sent an email or message to all volunteers for the Marathon race. Please check your emails. If anyone else would like to volunteer as a helper during the marathon race there is space for another volunteer or two. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 22 2023, 8:06am | I have now sent an email to all Marathon Participants. It is sent to the email address you used to create your IMRA profile. We're all ready for Saturday, it's set to be a lovely warm day. |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jun 24 2023, 5:24am | *Boil water notice in Clonaslee village* Take note. We have been busy the last couple of days arranging numerous water refill points about the Slieve Blooms external to the boil water notice. |
| John O Connor | Jun 24 2023, 6:09pm | Thanks Gaelan and team, brilliantly organised, great set up in the community centre. Mighty organising over the last few weeks and replying back to people's questions. Thanks again |
| Damien Harnett | Jun 24 2023, 9:33pm | Thanks Gaelan super event well organised with plenty of aid stations just when you needed a top up and route really well marked. Will be bak again. |
| Sorcha Loughnane | Jun 25 2023, 9:02am | Huge thanks to Gaelen and crew for a superb event yesterday. Really well organised, well marked, great atmosphere and a lovely course. And the most fabulous spread afterwards too!! Really appreciate the whole crew who made it happen! |
| Mick Hanney | Jun 25 2023, 10:10am | Congrats Sorcha for your overall win in the marathon. Great running in tough hot conditions. |
| Paul Kelly | Jun 25 2023, 12:44pm | Hi All - A GoPro 9 was handed into the finish line yesterday. If anyone is missing it please email us on slievebloomwayultra at gmail . com |
| Connie Conroy | Jun 25 2023, 2:38pm | Congrats Gaelen all the organisers and volunteers yesterday. In years to come it will be nice to recall that we participated in the first ‘Longest Saturday of the year marathon event’ in the Slieve Blooms. Bring on 3024. Well done to all to all. |
| Connie Conroy | Jun 25 2023, 2:39pm | Freudian slip - 2024 |
| Cathal Brennan | Jun 26 2023, 3:57pm | Hi, Thanks all for organizing a great event. The Slieve Blooms is great place to run. The volunteers around the course were friendly and very helpful. The heat definitely got to me by the end. I might be too early to query as it might be sorted when all results come out, but I see my name coming up on the half marathon . My number is 2584. There was plenty of the half people coming in at around the same time but I definitely ran the full 43k Thanks again to Gaelen and the team |
| Brendan O'Mahony | Jun 26 2023, 4:17pm | Thanks Gaelan and all those that helped out on the day. First time on the Slieve Bloom way and it was beautiful. Will definitely be back for future events. |
| Mick Hanney | Jun 26 2023, 7:46pm | @Cathal - by any chance might you have been wearing an IMRA chip on your runner? If so the mat would have picked it up. I had found a couple of marathoners in the results but obviously not yours. Will address. |
| Cathal Brennan | Jun 26 2023, 8:03pm | Hi Mick The chip was on my shoe alright. |
| John J Barry | Jun 27 2023, 12:20pm | Echo all the comments previously. Well done to Niamh, Brain and the rest of the SE crew for an exceptional day. Fabulous organisation and so well run. Route had a great mix with the ridge and river sections were real gems. The aid stations were excellent and especially the two lads at 25km were so helpful and supportive. It was so hot and having a water station with just 4km to go was brilliant . Hopefully back for a winter version of the route next year. |
| Avril Challoner | Jun 27 2023, 12:32pm | As other have said, it was a great runable route and even the road section in the middle was scenic! Well done to all involved. The only change i'd suggest is turning down the sun a few degrees - although better a few degrees too warm than lashing rain. |
| John O Connor | Jun 29 2023, 5:54am | Any results of this race? Thanks again |
| Sorcha Loughnane | Jun 30 2023, 8:49am | I was also wondering if results of this would be published - but we didn’t have timing tags for the marathon? Unless the marathon results were being manually recorded at the finish line? |
| Paul Kelly | Jun 30 2023, 9:22am | Hi All, apologies on the delay on getting the results up. That's on me, I was trialing a method to collect results for all races last Saturday and when we thought all was good and stopped taking manual entries Murphy's law came along and proved a point.... The laptop died before I got to save the damn thing! I have up until approx 5hrs of the marathon finish line accounted for and I have, from manual spotters sheets the sequence of finishers. I will email the runners directly over the weekend for their times on their watches and if they weren't wearing a watch I can give them a time on their position. Position being a little more important than time. Once again sorry for the delay we'll get them posted ASAP |
| Aidan McGee | Jun 30 2023, 9:41am | thanks for the update. thrse things happen , i dont envy anyone doing results my number was 3236 my time was 5:33:11 by my garmin watch thanks for a great event. Aidan McGee |
| Aidan McGee | Jun 30 2023, 9:41am | thanks for the update. these things happen , i dont envy anyone doing results my number was 3236 my time was 5:33:11 by my garmin watch thanks for a great event. Aidan McGee |
| John O Connor | Jun 30 2023, 9:47am | Hi Paul, If its any help for a cut off point I was bang on 5:00:20 bib number #270 |
| Paul Kelly | Jun 30 2023, 12:45pm | Hi All - Thanks Aidan and John for your replies. I've sent an email to the 14 runners that I didn't have a result for. Hopefully you get the email and reply over the weekend. Should I not hear anything by Monday I'll get what I have uploaded and we can amend the remainder afterwards. Regards Paul |
| Mark Raleigh | Jun 30 2023, 12:56pm | Hi Paul, did the laptop issue affect the ultra as well as I note a discrepancy in my result. Have already emailed Niamh yesterday as those results seem to have been taken when trackers were switched off and not when I actually crossed the finish line. |
| Jan Tomasek | Jul 1 2023, 8:32pm | Hi, I did not get any email. my race number: 3164, time: 5:13:16 Thanks |
| Rachel Burgess | Jul 3 2023, 1:33pm | The suspense!!!! |
| John O Connor | Jul 5 2023, 1:30pm | Hi, i know there was issues with times any idea when/ if there will be results populated Thanks |
| Rachel Burgess | Jul 9 2023, 10:51am | Could we get even provisional results for this, please? Or even the winners time? Thanks |
| Paul Kelly | Jul 9 2023, 12:37pm | Hi Rachel, I understand your frustration the results have been sent over to the person whom looks after them for them to be uploaded. Please understand that as we are volunteer led the person whom looks after them may be away (it is holiday season after all) or very busy in their personal lives. Hopefully what I have below works on the forum they are the provisional results in the format of Runner's Number - Finishing Time - Runners name. Please wait for the final results to be uploaded should anyone query their time! 1399 - 03:47:15 - Sorcha Loughnane 1854 - 04:09:37 - Mark Lenihan 3098 - 04:14:03 - Elia viola 2584 - 04:24:56 - Cathal Brennan 1806 - 04:29:35 - Rachel Burgess 2258 - 04:33:43 - paul burke 1942 - 04:45:44 - John O'Connell 823 - 04:49:07 - Avril Challoner 3021 - 04:50:43 - Karen Wilton 226 - 04:53:37 - Kieran Hennerty 3142 - 05:00:45 - Byrne Cillian 270 - 05:00:51 - John O Connor 2290 - 05:04:50 - sheila clavin 3061 - 05:05:26 - Derek Bracken 1920 - 05:05:30 - Michael McCormack80 921 - 05:05:34 - Barbara Podraza 922 - 05:05:35 - Mariusz Podraza 847 - 05:05:58 - Brian Wynne 759 - 05:07:31 - Tom Downes 430 - 05:09:01 - Steven Byrne 3206 - 05:12:09 - Olivia Sheerin 3164 - 05:13:47 - Jan Tomasek 1679 - 05:16:29 - Jackie Fitzsimons 3032 - 05:19:09 - Marlin Chettik 2125 - 05:23:40 - Damien Harnett 990 - 05:24:43 - Craig Holman 391 - 05:26:40 - Paul Duggan 193 - 05:28:07 - Gearoid Dunton 3236 - 05:33:11 - Aidan McGee 2649 - 05:35:04 - olejniczak ala 2653 - 05:35:26 - Joanne Bradbury 3217 - 05:37:32 - Alan Mc Hugh 1245 - 05:46:08 - Brendan O'Mahony 2857 - 05:46:09 - Brian O'Mahony 328 - 05:56:07 - Mark McInerney 1037 - 05:58:00 - Raymond Lawlor 1907 - 06:00:00 - MICHAEL MCDONNELL 1802 - 06:05:25 - Linda Carroll 2060 - 06:05:25 - Dominic Tilley 2958 - 06:13:58 - Dave Baynham 3232 - 06:14:00 - Tom hennessey 3197 - 06:16:00 - Connie Conroy 403 - 06:36:58 - John J Barry 2296 - 06:43:24 - John Healy 3223 - DNF - Elizabeth Morrin 195 - DNF - Lynda Talbot 3014 - DNF - JUDITH ROBINSON 1545 - DNF - Rachel O'Callaghan 3052 - DNF - Larry Rigney 2814 - DNF - Darren O'Rourke 1381 - DNF - lanigan sean |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Jul 9 2023, 3:35pm | Cheers Paul for the provisional results. Thank you to everyone for your patience. |
| Rachel Burgess | Jul 9 2023, 7:05pm | Thanks Paul and team |

| Gaelan Elliffe | Jul 10 2023, 3:53pm | I see the results for the marathon have been uploaded to the results page. Thanks you to everyone who helped get the results together. Well done to everyone who did the race a few weeks ago, it was great to see so many people enjoying the trails of this area. Also, a big thank you to everyone who helped out with this event. It was a big team effort from volunteers on the day, the IMRA committee and the core group of organisers. The local community of the Slieve Blooms were very supportive throughout too. For anyone who wants more from the super Slieve Blooms, see the Arderin - Clear Lake race scheduled for August 13th. |
