| Gerry Farrell | Apr 11 2022, 7:56am | Hi all, are the online entries for this open soon or is it still the issue with the site itself is the reason? Thank you. Gerry Farrell |
| Declan Cox | Apr 13 2022, 3:01pm | Any event details lads ? Only 2 weeks away and folks need to plan, thanks. |
| Gerry Farrell | Apr 14 2022, 7:51pm | Hi all, will there be a few water stations along the route, thank you. |
| Kevin Lenihan | Apr 14 2022, 11:37pm | Usually there are water stops every 10km or so..darragh Bridge, ballyorgan and near the bike centre. |
| Gerry Farrell | Apr 15 2022, 6:55pm | Thanks kevin, appreciate that. |
| Marcus Bishop | Apr 21 2022, 8:15pm | Hi there seems to be a problem with the web page earlier when trying to buy entry to the marathon. My account was debited EUR 60, but have not received email notification. Thanks, Marcus |
| Gaelan Elliffe | Apr 21 2022, 10:28pm | Oh dear, I missed getting an entry for this one. |
| Pól Ó Murchú | Apr 21 2022, 10:31pm | Yeah Marcus you are n the entry list. You should also be able to see it in your purchase history. |
| Adrian Cooke | Apr 26 2022, 5:52pm | Is there any possibility in getting an entry for this race. I missed the deadline. |
| john mckeogh | Apr 27 2022, 8:43pm | Hey guys, just wondering is the gpx shared the correct route? Thanks, John. |
| Robbie Williams | Apr 27 2022, 9:22pm | Looks good to me |
| Derek O'Brien | Apr 27 2022, 9:38pm | Hi, I’m signed up for the marathon would it be possible to change to the half |
| john mckeogh | Apr 27 2022, 9:38pm | Cheers Robbie I was around the area this evening and saw some arrows. Are these for the Ultra? |
| Kevin Lenihan | Apr 27 2022, 9:59pm | Most of the ultra, full and half course is marked already John. |
| Kevin Lenihan | Apr 27 2022, 11:01pm | The marathon route is the same as the route last year...the gpx above is from the midnight marathon route where we skipped the river section. Course is well marked with red arrows so no worries about getting lost. |
| Gerard Down | Apr 27 2022, 11:09pm | Hi, if anybody from or passing throuigh Cork is going up to Kilfinane Friday and could offer a lift, it would be much appreciated ! |
| john mckeogh | Apr 27 2022, 11:14pm | Perfect,Thanks Kevin. That's what I was thinking. |
| Gerry Farrell | Apr 28 2022, 2:33pm | Hi Kevin, the above GPX is incorrect so, is that right? Also is the marathon marked with red arrows or is it pretty much the same route for the half, full and ultra? Thanks a million - gerry |
| Raymond Cummins | Apr 28 2022, 2:59pm | Hi Gerry, my experience of doing events like this, are that they are always well marked. The volunteers spend a lot of time putting arrows and tape out and some of the junctions even have volunteers there. The only time I have seen people get lost is when they were chatting and missed an arrow. ;-) |
| Gerry Farrell | Apr 28 2022, 3:19pm | Thanks a million Raymond, good to know :-) |
| Alan Ayling | Apr 28 2022, 4:52pm | Just saw the route change on the plotaroute. A shame to lose that lovely section along by the river. On the plus side, fewer stiles to climb :-) |
| Kevin Lenihan | Apr 28 2022, 5:42pm | Hi Alan...route for the marathon is the same as it was the last few years..the section along the river is still there..they have replaced alot of the stiles with gates so should make it a little easier...plenty of red arrows and red/white tape on the course as well. |
| GARY ARBUTHNOT | Apr 28 2022, 5:43pm | Is there a time for registration please? |
| Brendan Neville | Apr 30 2022, 8:42pm | Many thanks to Robbie and his crew of volunteers for another great day - even the weather was great. Well marked course and well done all runners esp the ultras! |
| GARY ARBUTHNOT | Apr 30 2022, 9:08pm | Thanks to everyone involved in the organising, course marking and running of the races today. Lovely course, thanks lads. |
| Gerry Farrell | May 1 2022, 8:20pm | Thank you to all the IMRA crew and volunteers, great race and day out, gerry |
| Cathal Prior | May 1 2022, 11:12pm | Thank you everyone that was involved in organising and running the races yesterday. A very well marked course, with a wide variety of terrain. It was nice to have those extra water stations. Appreciated the encouragement from marshalls along the way. A great day out. |
