Robbie Williams | Jun 24 2020, 9:59pm | Hello All.. With us putting plans into place behind the scenes, we are hoping that this race will open in a few days. As you may be aware , the route is a challenging one indeed. I might add that, if we are going ahead, the route had changed slightly in order to not have the complexities of group bus travel. The new route will involve leave Cronins Yard, crossing the bridge, and ascending up past Lough Comeenapeasta and making straight for the grotto on Cruach Mor. This, as you might guess brings approx 900m of climbing in 3.5-4kms! The route continues as normal from there. As with last year, please do not register for this race until you have got approval from race Director. If interested, please send name, phone number and a list of races that have similar difficulty that you have completed already. Thank you Robbie |

Race is €50 Race Trucker Hat, Refreshments, Live Tracking. Cronin have asked that can we please avoid using their showers so as not to encroach on hikers comfort that are staying in pods etc. Thank You |
Gary Mason81 | Jun 28 2020, 11:07pm | Hi Robbie Do we need a confirmation email from yourself to say we can enter this event? I sent an email but got no reply. Just unsure if that’s a no. Thanks |
Robbie Williams | Jun 29 2020, 5:21am | Just mailed you Gary |
Gordon Place | Jun 29 2020, 8:34am | Great news! Cronins say they are fully booked out for pods and camping in case anyone was going to try |
Avril Challoner | Jun 29 2020, 8:45am | Would love to be able to make it down again, this was one of my favorite races last year! Hopefully will make it next year :) We stayed in a campsite next to Cronins yard last year (Carrauntoohil Eco Farm) if anyone is looking for more accommodation next to the start. Nice little set up, allowed our dog to stay and a 5 minute walk down to Cronins yard. |
Richard Nunan | Jun 29 2020, 10:01am | Gordon - Campsite booking available via Robbie |
Gordon Place | Jun 29 2020, 10:37am | Thanks Avril & Richard |
Jeff Swords | Jun 29 2020, 11:13am | Richard/Robbie, Is the campsite also available for the splitters doing the classic the next day? |
Brian Smyth | Jun 29 2020, 12:34pm | Hi Robbie I see in March of last year this was categorized as a NG race. Is this still the case? It says on the event info that GPS is allowed. Presume this is just for distance traveled , timing, recording of route for post-race analysis etc ; and it is not allowed as a route finding aid? Apologies if this has been clarified somewhere already. Many thanks Brian |
Robbie Williams | Jun 29 2020, 5:54pm | GPS is allowed in this race |
Brian Smyth | Jun 30 2020, 9:39am | Ok thanks Robbie |
