- Organisers Instructions:
- This is a trial for U20 athletes interested in competing at the 2025 World Mountain and Trail Championships to be held in Canfranc on 25-28 September. The race will start at WW signpost around 80 metres above car park barrier and finish at the foot of the Maulin ride (see Map link above and photos for provisional course and profiles). Follow the Wicklow Way for 1.3km until you reach the bottom of the Maulin ride. The steep climb is 120 metres with an average gradient of 26%. The climb crosses a fire road and turns left on the walking path above, follow the trail to the Wicklow Way and descend along the Wicklow Way to the start of the steep climb. Athletes complete the loop 3 times and the race finishes at the start line.
Volunteers (Non-Running)
You need to have done 2 non-running volunteer roles in a calendar year to qualify for end of year prize
Volunteers (Running)
Check with race director if they have a need for people volunteering and running. Race directors need a minimum number of people available throughout the race to make the race work so non-running volunteers are preferable. While it can be helpful, volunteering in a volunteer and race capacity does not count towards qualifying for end of year prize
