| sidney shaw | Jul 18 2010, 1:16pm | Hello, i am cycling around Ireland and I am a runner from the states. I would like to sign up for the race but I am not sure how to do so. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks so much and I hope to see you all on the trail.. Slainte SIdney |
| Amanda Duffield | Jul 19 2010, 9:28am | Hello For these races you just have to show up before registration closes and pay the membership fee of €10 and the race entry fee of €7 and you will get a number for the race. Good luck |

| Oran Murphy | Jul 19 2010, 11:35am | Hi I'd like to volunteer for this race and run too if possible. How do I get acces to MyIMRA? Tks Oran |
| Niall O'Connor | Jul 22 2010, 12:52am | Hi all, any route map available yet?? sorry i dont know the area at all |
| stephen coller | Jul 22 2010, 8:32pm | where is the race start lads? is it the kilbride side or talbotstown? |
| Douglas Barry | Jul 22 2010, 11:42pm | On the route map for this event, we never seemed to have had one on file before. If anybody has one, send it to me at imra at iol.ie. Thanks! |
| Mick Hanney | Jul 23 2010, 6:34am | Or, if someone knows the route and sketches it on a map for a scan/email (mick.hanney at imra.ie), I could draw it up in the OSI map software for the site. Cheers, Mick |

| Mikey Fry | Jul 26 2010, 9:44pm | Just wondering if there will b any end of season tops at this race to pick up thanks:-) |
| Vivian O'Gorman | Jul 26 2010, 10:21pm | We need both a First Aid Person and a Race Marker for Wednesday. Just use myimra or leave a note on the forum. The race can be marked on Wednesday night and the first aid bag can be had on Wednesday also. Thanks. |
| Jeff Fitzsimons | Jul 26 2010, 10:30pm | Vivian, I'm not on the 1st aid panel but did the occupational 1st aid course with the Johns Ambulance earlier in the year if that's any help. I'm already signed up as a non running volunteer. Let me know if that's any use to ya. |
| Kevin O'Riordan | Jul 26 2010, 11:04pm | From the looks of it, the event could do with a laptop operator as well? El Presidente Dermot Murphy did the laptop at the last few events but it's not sustainable to have the same person doing it at every event. |
| Dermot Murphy | Jul 27 2010, 8:43am | As it so happens, I have the lap top at the moment and I am also happy enough to do the lap top for Wednesday's race - so I have put myself down as the lap top operator for Wednesdays race. But Kevin's point is still a pertinent one - we need more lap operators as its the same few volunteering for this each week. Any takers for the final Trail race at Devil's Glen? Are there many people out there who are not trained on the lap top but like give it a go? If so, we will arrange another lap top training session sometime over the close season. |
| Mary Collins | Jul 27 2010, 3:02pm | Hi Douglas and Vivian I have put my name down to be a non running helper for role of 1st aid officer Will try to get there as early as I can--but may not be there in time to help with registration etc But will aim to be there by 7.20pm at latest, before race actually starts.

| Karen Moore | Jul 27 2010, 4:58pm | Hi I've 2 friends who want to join up tomorrow but have no lift (from Trinity). Is there anyone who can offer them a lift please? Thanks |
| Karen Moore | Jul 27 2010, 6:30pm | I should have said, of course, that they can get Dart or Luas to a pick up point! Thanks |
| Vivian O' Gorman | Jul 27 2010, 8:54pm | Hi All - could all volunteers be at the srart of race as close to 6.15 as possible. Peter O'Farrell is going to mark the course and Mary and Jeff are on first aid. All other volunteers can help with registration and finish. Hopefully the rain will hold off and da migges stay in bed!! See you all tomorrow night. |

| Jeff Fitzsimons | Jul 27 2010, 10:08pm | Karen, I will be leaving Francis Street, D8 at 5.30 tomorrow if that is any help to your friends. They can contact me by email at jeff dot fitzsimons @ gmail dot com. Dermot, on the laptop front I might shadow you tomorrow to see what's involved if that does not get in the way. |
| Douglas Barry | Jul 28 2010, 1:27am | PLEASE DON'T POST ANY MORE MESSAGES ON THIS TOPIC. USE THE EARL'S DRIVE THREAD INSTEAD. YES, EARL'S DRIVE it is, and HAS to be!! Butter Mountain has slipped away. It's gone for this year. It might be back next in 2011, but 2010, it ain't gonna be. The Golden Slippy Unmentionable will remain just that - unmentionable. Constant repetition of The Name of The GSU will not alert people to the fact that the race is NOW on at the Earl's Drive. YES, EARL'S DRIVE!!! Otherwise, we'll hear disappointed runners' wails of despair from The GSU at the Earl's Drive as they realise no race is going to happen there, and it's a long drive to the Earl's from THE GSU. OK! EARL'S DRIVE!!!! |
| Eoin Mc Donald | Jul 28 2010, 7:11am | hi, I'd like to help and run at this race if you still need helpers. Thanks, Eoin |
| Karen Moore | Jul 28 2010, 9:54am | Thanks Jeff - unfortunately they've decided not to come on the race...thanks very much for offer of lift anyway. |
| Stephen Redmond | Jul 28 2010, 3:58pm | Hi, Is anyone coming back via Blackrock direction. Am looking for a lift! Cheers, Stephen |
| Ronan Kearney | Jul 28 2010, 4:27pm | Hi Stephen I will be driving down from Monkstown. Give me a buzz on O85 78495O9 |
| Rene Borg | Jul 31 2010, 8:52pm | Team results for this event are up. |
