| Maria O'Rourke | Jun 29 2009, 11:58pm | Hi Vivian, i did'nt mean to volunteer three times! sorry about that not really sure what i did wrong, now you know why i don't volunteer for laptop operator!! I'm a disaster! Maria |
| Edward Bateman | Jul 3 2009, 11:48am | Hi, since this is my first time volunteering I am unsure about the option to run, if possible i would love to run this race, if not I can change it back to non runner (I'm just unsure who decides this). thanks. |
| Brendan Lawlor | Jul 3 2009, 12:02pm | Edward When you volunteer, you can opt to run or not. If you opt to run, make sure you get to the race early to help with the initial set up of registration and again after the race help with taking in numbers and tidying up. Most race directors don't mind volunteers who opt to run, providing not all of the volunteers do this or else there is no one to record results etc, act as summit marshal etc. Also if you are volunteering and want to run, don't leave your post for a 30 or 40 minute minute warm up - usually running volunteers stay in position until registration closes, about 15 minutes before race start, then do a quick warm up and join the race. Once you've volunteered once or twice you'll see how it all works Hope this helps |
| Edward Bateman | Jul 3 2009, 3:50pm | Thanks Brendan, thats crystal clear and i'm delighted that i'll be able to take part! ;O) |
| eddie donegan | Jul 10 2009, 6:57pm | hi could someone invite me to join myimra so i can volunteer for this race please |
| Mick Worrell | Jul 11 2009, 4:01pm | Hi Vivian, thanks for the invite to myimra, brilliant system.. Would like to volunteer as a helper at Kippure, and will not be running mickw |
| Eoin Mahon | Jul 13 2009, 1:15pm | Hi Vivian, I just volunteered as a helper for this race. I'd like to run if possible but if not that's ok. |
| Vivian O'Gorman | Jul 13 2009, 5:10pm | Hi Folks -- Need First Aid Person - Laptop Operator and Course Marker for Kippure. Any people who volunteer and want to run can do so. |
| Gareth Little | Jul 16 2009, 11:43am | Just looking at the example in the Organisers Instructions section, is 44*1.4 not 61.6? I only did 4 races and my % of winning was %120.5 44 * 1.205 = 53.02 - 6 = 47.02 - 8:30 = 7:42:58 Does this look correct? Many Thanks! Gareth |
| Bruce Shenker | Jul 16 2009, 12:38pm | Hey Vivian, I have a program we used the past few years to generate the handicaps. Give me a shout at bruce.shenker at s1.com if you need it for this year.(Would that count for volunteering???) Or perhaps you have a new scheme. Bruce |
| Vivian O'Gorman | Jul 18 2009, 8:03pm | I am still looking for a Laptop Operator and a First Aid Person for this race. |
| Con O'Donovan | Jul 20 2009, 10:00am | Can I just confirm (cause I'm slow on Mondays) that a brand new runner would start at 08:30? And are they OK to turn up at, say, 08:00 to register? Thanks. Also, is there a need for more 'unskilled' volunteers? Cheers. |

| Bruce Shenker | Jul 20 2009, 1:08pm | There is a bug in the program that I never fixed so if you are listed with a middle name you may not have been given a start time. So if you did not get a start time and think you should send an email. Complaints about what your start time is can go to Vivian where they will land on deaf ears I assume. |
| Derek Charles | Jul 20 2009, 2:24pm | Hi Rene, I am interested in running this race but have only run 3LL races this year, with an average finish of 148%. I have worked out my start time as 7.32. Is this correct? and can I run this race on Wednesday at this start time? Thanks |
| Brian Carolan | Jul 20 2009, 2:43pm | Is there a route map and profile available for this race? Also I seem to be starting behind some guys that finished ahead of me in the league. Not sure how that works out. |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 20 2009, 2:56pm | I noticed that too e.g. a runner that finished after me in the league is after me starting the handicap. Could be a result of the % being driven by overall results and not just Leinster League races? |
| niamh o ceallaigh | Jul 20 2009, 2:57pm | That seems to be the case Mick... Shhhhhhhh.... say nothing! |
| Bruce Shenker | Jul 20 2009, 2:58pm | The one flaw in the logic of this program is that we only get total percentage, we cannot seperate the league percentage from other races, so sometimes there are annomalies based on a longer weekend race that may skew the start time. |
| John Coleman | Jul 20 2009, 3:04pm | Map(s) and or course profile would be extremely handy for those of us unfamiliar with Kippure. John. |
| Taz AllMountainExperience | Jul 20 2009, 3:11pm | Can some one confirm that a newbie(who has not raced in any other race this year)can start at 7.50pm? Also do I have to pre-enter or can I just turn up? |
| Vivian O'Gorman | Jul 20 2009, 10:21pm | Hi Folks, Just a couple of things for Wednesday: Anyone not on the Handicap List or a First Time Runner starts at 7.50pm Race Registration will finish at 7.30pm Please Car Pool and park your cars on one side of the road only. Unless you are all Camels bring your own water! Bring ALL your rubbish home with you. Enjoy the race see you Wednesday. |
| Rene Borg | Jul 21 2009, 8:43am | On the question on the map, we don't currently have a map of Kippure in our database. I have now been "enabled" with a the OSI software and plan to spend the following months working on creating all the missing maps but this won't be ready for tomorrow's race. For this race, you'll be alright, however as long as you use the location map to get to the right starting point. It's a straightforward up and back route following the fire trail until it ends and then heading straight up through pretty bad terrain to the mast. A quick solution would be to put a red marker to a copy of a the new Dublin Mountain map from EastWing, scan it and send it to me. I'll be happy to put it up if anyone has one until we can get a proper OSI one designed. |
| Declan Cunningham | Jul 21 2009, 4:11pm | Hello there, I'm available as a volunteer for tomorrows race if you still need someone. I'd prefer to run if possible but I don't mind either way. Let me know if you still need people and what time you need us at the start. Cheers, Declan - 0866028639 |
| Ercus Stewart | Jul 21 2009, 4:26pm | JAMES ALEXANDER wants a lift from leopardstown, exit 14 on M50. PLS CALL Billy on 087 7776666 |
| Jason Reid | Jul 21 2009, 4:35pm | Yes, and i seem to be scheduled to start the race AFTER Eoin Keith. How unfortunate for me! Actually, I'm available to help out tomorrow as a non-running volunteer if extra hands are needed. You'll reach me on - jason.anthony.reid@gmail.com |
| Declan Cunningham | Jul 21 2009, 5:44pm | Hello there, I'm available as a volunteer for tomorrows race if you still need someone. I'd prefer to run if possible but I don't mind either way. Let me know if you still need people and what time you need us at the start. Cheers, Declan - 0866028639 |
| Marlon Davies | Jul 21 2009, 7:00pm | I am looking for a lift to race tomorrow. Anyone going from city center or any of Dart or Luas stops? thanks! |
| John Barry | Jul 22 2009, 9:25am | Marlon , I\'ll give you a lift out: Windy Arbour Luas station again. /John |
| Brian Carolan | Jul 22 2009, 11:15am | Just want to make sure I don\'t get lost en route to the race. If I guide my chauffeur in the wrong direction I\'ll be in big trouble. I\'ll be coming from Old Bawn so do I just take Old Court Road (R113) until it hits Stocking Lane (R115) and then keep to this road and I can\'t miss it? |
| Marlon Davies | Jul 22 2009, 11:25am | Hi John, Would 6 be okay this time? I think we would have enough time to get there yes? tks, Marlon |
| John Barry | Jul 22 2009, 12:27pm | Marlon, 6 is the finest.. Stay at the Bus Stop. I\'ll be heading up Churchtown Road. Anybody else for a lift are welcome (Windy Arbour Luas at 6 p.m.) /John |
| Melanie Walsh | Jul 22 2009, 12:31pm | Hi Vivian, I am down as a volunteer \'helper\' who wants to run. My start time is 7:12. What time should I arrive to help? Tks, Melanie. |
| Declan Cunningham | Jul 22 2009, 1:41pm | I\'ll be heading out to the Kippure race this evening about 5pm(I need to be out there about 6pm to help) and will be passing through Rathfarnham after coming through the city centre if anyone wants a lift. I have 2-3 seats available. 0866028639 |
| Brian Carolan | Jul 22 2009, 2:22pm | Can anyone confirm if I have this correct re getting to race this evening? I\'ll be coming from Old Bawn so do I just take Old Court Road (R113) until it hits Stocking Lane (R115) and then keep to this road and I can\'t miss it? Thanks |
| Pól Ó Murchú | Jul 22 2009, 3:21pm | yeah that\'s about right Brian. There might be a better way to get to the R115 but I don\'t want to be held responsible for getting you lost. So once you hit the R115 just keep going and you can\'t miss it. That is assuming you know what you are looking for. Otherwise quite easy to miss :) |
| Brian Carolan | Jul 22 2009, 4:39pm | Well don\'t know exactly what I\'m looking for but I assume it\'s in off the road just light Hellfire? I assume the cars that will be parking on \"the road\" will be parking on R115? If so I should find it. |
| Vivian O'Gorman | Jul 23 2009, 12:35am | Hi folks -- do you know that this is the end of July? No? I did\'t think so and with tonights weather I don\'t blame you. That yellow disk was looking down on the city and the Sugarloaf but Kippure not on your life! Lashed -- cleared -- lashed again -- mist on mountain what more can one ask for?! So I would like to thank EVERYBODY that turned out tonight for your patience and good humour before and after the race. In paticular a BIG THANK YOU to ALL the volunteers who helped me tonight particularly at registration and at the finish during the rain.I mention no names because I just might leave someone out.Well one name -- Gordon Douglas who manned the top. The results will be up in a couple of days as I didn\'t have the laptop and if I have made any mistakes tonight I will rectify them in the results. Thank you all again and well done to everybody. |
| Paul Cullen | Jul 23 2009, 9:41am | Can I echo Vivian\'s thank-you to the volunteers; I didn\'t know whether to envy them for the fact that they weren\'t running or feel sorry for them because they were doomed to freeze in the awful conditions. |
| John Shiels | Jul 23 2009, 9:48am | feel sorry for us freezing in the rain please! |
| John Shiels | Jul 23 2009, 10:09am | feel sorry for us freezing in the rain please! |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 23 2009, 5:33pm | Can I echo the thanks for the organisers of last nights race. Vivian, John, Gordon, Jason & co for a job well done in dreadful conditions. It was one of those evenings when it was very tempting to stay tucked up in the car. I\'ve never run on Kippure before and I thought the route was in a pretty poor state once you got off the track. Is this the case each year and if not should we be running on it? Just wondering... |
| Edward Bateman | Jul 27 2009, 11:25am | Are the results for this race available yet? Or finishing times? Thanks, Ed |
| Aisling Coppinger | Jul 27 2009, 1:39pm | Because of the nature of the handicap race with different start times etc. it\'ll probably be later in the week when we get to finalise the results. We didn\'t use the lap top and the rain made it difficult to read the handwritten finish times accurately. So sincere apologies. |
| Aisling Corkery | Aug 4 2009, 4:59pm | Thanks for getting the results up under such tough conditions!! You have me down as a DNF, so just letting you know I finished and from what I can see, my photo at the finish, shows me just in front of Phil Ward (number 546)....he most likely pasted me out before the finish line :o) My jacket was hiding my number, so apologies it was my own fault. Thanks again Aisling |
| David Healy | Aug 5 2009, 2:27pm | My result doesn\'t seem to be up for this race. I started at 7:46pm if i remember (the last starters were 7:45 and because i had only run one imra race this year before this race i went out after the field). My number is 384. |
| Sinéad Roche | Aug 7 2009, 9:08pm | Hi Aisling and David, Results have now been updated. Regards, Sinead |
