Mick Hanney | Jan 27 2012, 10:23pm | A race director is needed for this race. I'll be on holidays at the time. |
Paul O' Connor | Apr 10 2012, 1:49pm | Has anyone got a GPS trace from last years race? Ran the route on Friday but we logged close to 11km so obviously went wrong somewhere. |
Sam Scriven | Apr 10 2012, 10:49pm | Last year's race started and finished at the church at the bottom of Rooskey Rd, so slightly different to the route shown on the map. Can't retrieve my gps track but measured 8.7k and 588m climb. |
Brian O'Murchu | Jul 23 2012, 8:20pm | I remember there was a bus to Annagh Hill earlier this year for runners to travel to and from the race. Was wondering if anything was in the pipeline for Carlingford? I did this race last year and was really excellent |
Vivian O'Gorman | Aug 27 2012, 4:39pm | This is the last Leinster Championship race for 2012. So anyone who has run three of the races has to run this one to finish their Championship. I just need a couple of volunteers. A First Aid person and Lap Top person. If anybody wants to do either and run thats no problem. Also if anybody wants to go for a walk and do Summit Marshall. The usual kit requirement goes with this race: A. Longsleeved rainproof running top B. Bumbag with chocolates and/or biscuits C. Water Map - Compass - Whistle Race registration will open at 11am Race start will be as last year Anyone who wants an early start can go between 11.15 and 11.30 Prizegiving afterwards will be in the carpark by the main road Don't forget bring all your rubbish home! |
Aidan Blighe | Aug 28 2012, 12:00am | Hi Vivian, I can do first aider but would like to run to get the 4 races in. Do you have the kit? Aidan |
James Daly | Aug 28 2012, 10:14am | Are the compasses maps and whistles really necessary? Is it not just standard out and back route? |
Vivian O'Gorman | Aug 28 2012, 5:05pm | Hi Aidan thats great and I will have the first aid bag. James this is a mountain race - no such thing as a standard one though - weather conditions can change things very quickly whether the course is out and back or not |
Donal Troddyn | Aug 28 2012, 5:11pm | If someone can give me a lift up from Dublin, I'll do Laptop for you. I could also help with the first aid while Aidan's out on the course. |
Turlough Conway | Aug 29 2012, 6:01pm | Hi. Looking for a lift for Sundays race too. Thanks. turlough |
Daniela Boehm | Aug 31 2012, 12:14pm | Hi, we are heading up to Carlingford and have 3 spare seats in the car. Leaving Ranelagh around 9.30/9.45, give us a shout at boehm DOT dan AT gmail.com or 08six201six784 if you want a lift. Daniela |

Ken Cowley | Sep 1 2012, 8:02am | Does anyone know is there a good sea-swimming spot close to the race finish? |
Paul O' Connor | Sep 1 2012, 12:30pm | Templetown is a blue-flag beach and is around 10 or 15 minutes drive from Carlingford. http://www.blueflag.org/Menu/Awarded+sites/2012/Northern+Hemisphere/Ireland/Border/Templetown https://www.google.com/maps?saddr=53.97891,+-6.158&daddr=carlingford,+louth&hl=en&sll=53.985594,-6.161098&sspn=0.020944,0.05991&geocode=FR6nNwMdUAmi_w%3BFS2gOAMdNpih_ynrXEjVvtZgSDEAiDGXqccACg&t=h&mra=ls&z=13 |
Ken Cowley | Sep 1 2012, 8:54pm | Great, thanks for the swimming info! |
Stuart Scott | Sep 2 2012, 2:37am | The slipway in Carlingford sailing club is what I'm aiming for. The tide is in our favour - well its an incentive to run fast at least! |

aidan roe | Sep 3 2012, 2:21pm | @aidan blighe I told you about the cake before. (slower)aidan |
henny brandsma | Sep 4 2012, 9:03am | Just to clarify myself,in case people think that i am taking some sort of banned substance's,word spead should read speed,like in running faster and stamyna,should be of course stamina,like in running longer/stronger. So don't send Una May out to me to do some drugtesting as jet. Just to let you knowHenny. |
