| Ingrid Doublet | Jan 8 2024, 10:11am | Hi, just enquiring as to where I get a map for this run? Thanks Ingrid |

| Robbie Williams | Jan 8 2024, 1:48pm | MANDATORY KIT EXCLUSION Hi All This is a fully marked race , Just to avoid any one searching, you will not require a compass or a Map of area. 2 PIECES OF KIT THAT ARE ESSENTIAL are FULL HI VIZ VEST (not a strip) Only full high viz (which must be able to be seen from behind also ) are acceptable. If your pack is blocking you vest you must stick reflective or lift to rear of pack We take this (and your safety on road sections ) very seriously so you will not be permitted through the kit check zone without. Also, torch is essential and I would probably have a spare hand torch just incase too Make sure that are fully charged |
| Brendan Michael McCarthy | Jan 14 2024, 6:56pm | Hi Robbie, just wondering is there an early start available for the 28km race this year. |
| Robbie Williams | Jan 15 2024, 3:03pm | Yes 6:30 early start for Challenge No early start for Dash |
| Dariusz Gazdowicz | Jan 21 2024, 6:21pm | I signed up as a volunteer, but the earliest I can arrive is around 10 p.m., will there be anything to do there? |
| Robbie Williams | Jan 21 2024, 7:25pm | No Dariusz Thank you I need volunteers there from 5-7pm |
| Robbie Williams | Jan 22 2024, 11:00am | Hi Runners Final week lead up to Moonlight.,.. Can you please organize with fellow competitors to carpool so we have the LEAST POSSIBLE amount of cars parked in Kilfinnane on the night. Just a heads up to that both races will start 15mins earlier than advertised to facilitate a local funeral. A full email will go out to you all very soon. Thank you |

| Robbie Williams | Jan 25 2024, 5:08pm | All runners should have received their pre race email. Please take time to read all instructions carefully especially regarding , parking, mandatory kit and start times. |
| Brendan Lawlor | Jan 27 2024, 5:07pm | Big thank you to Robbie and the very extensive team of volunteers who put on a great evening of running down in the Ballyhoura’s. Great buzz , grub and drinks in the school hall at the finish. Thanks especially for help with the hotel and bus back to same. The post race pub had to be seen to be believed and Robbie’s boast of it serving the finest pint of Murphys in the country was spot on ! All much appreciated from the Leinster visitors.. they even supplied a Blue event beanie for those of us who can be somewhat phobic to the Munster red ! |
| Damien Holian | Jan 27 2024, 9:38pm | Big Thanks to Robbie and to his assistants last night. Great event, and afters. Course was very well marked, plenty of variety and lovely night for running. |
| Miriam Maher | Jan 28 2024, 4:28pm | Robbie and everyone (and there was a huge team of volunteers involved) thank you so much for putting on such a fantastic event for us all on Friday night. You even organised the full moon AND clear skies - impressive. The few stretches of muck were so deep that Alice Clancy suggested you must have got the local GAA club teams in to trample up and down it several times to create the depth of mucky stickiness, marvellous stuff:) Enjoyed it all so much - the before, the dash itself (although I was moving in slow motion for most of it), the afterwards - in the school and in the pub. Munster IMRA nailed it again:) Til next time! |
