Graham K. BusheSep 5 2023, 5:10pmHi Everyone. Yes it's that time again. As we prepare for the Kilmacanogue Running Festival, it is time to get your emails sent in for pre entry to the 5-Tops 1-Drop race.
Reminder that this is an unmarked race over open mountains covering some rough and exposed terrain. A proven ability to navigate in a similar type race in the past is required. (for example Leinster Championship, Stone Cross to Lug, Glacier Lakes etc.)
Please email the RD graham.bushe@ucd.ie and wait for a reply before purchasing entry to this event.

Rachel HarneyOct 5 2023, 10:29pmHi Elizabeth, yes, was just about to put up a carpool. Were driving from Pearse Street if you want a lift.

Richard LeahyOct 7 2023, 7:30pmBig thanks to Graham and team for the race today. The choice of races makes this one of the best events on the calendar. Special shout to Dr. Deegan who tended to the the scratches I got on my knees ;-)
Phil behanOct 7 2023, 7:34pmHuge thanks to Graham and all the team. Incredible job. Those jellies and coke at the road crossing saved me today ! Again, these races are such great additions to the IMRA calendar. Super job all.

Brian FureyOct 8 2023, 9:36pmThanks Graham, Angela, Lilian and everyone who organized for a great race and festival weekend. Not a bad race when you get it go up and down Sugarloaf (the long way up!), across the Leinster Champs 4 peaks race (Djouce, War hill , Tonduff and Maulin) and then down the Ayling Abyss. Weather was quite warm- well done to everyone who ran
