Owen Connolly | Jul 25 2025, 5:39pm | The U20 trial race is on Sunday at 12 noon. 7.5km with 420m climb to Maulin summit and back down. The race is open to all juniors aged 14-19 irrespective if you cannot qualify for the Workd Champs. You are all more than welcome to enter for the race experience. Registration closes tomorrow (Sat 26th Jul) evening at 6pm. Can everyone who has entered, please remember that mandatory kit is a rain jacket which must be carried at all times during the race. If you cross the finish line without a jacket, it will lead to disqualification. Looking forward to seeing you all on Sunday. |
Elizabeth Wheeler | Yesterday, 8:40am | Congratulations to the U20 Irish Team Selected for the World Mountain and Trail Running Championships 2025 IMRA is proud to announce the athletes selected to represent Ireland at the 2025 World Mountain and Trail Running Championships, taking place this September in Canfranc, Spain. From a highly competitive field of 34 talented athletes, just 8 spots were up for grabs—making this one of our most closely contested selections to date. The final places came down to mere seconds, with only 4 seconds separating 4th and 5th in the U20 Girls, and 10 seconds in the U20 Boys. A true testament to the grit and determination of every runner involved! Congratulations to the athletes selected: U20 Boys Team Finn Yore Eoin McConnell Rudy Mayne Riley Connolly U20 Girls Team Anna McGookin Abby Smith Sinead Farrell Alaoise Geraghty I would also like to extend a huge thank you to all the marshals and volunteers whose dedication, time, and effort made the trials and selection process possible. Best of luck to the team as they prepare to take on the mountains of Spain and fly the Irish flag high. Elizabeth Wheeler Junior Development Officer |
