John O Connor | Jan 20 2024, 10:06pm | Is it possible to do the race for a charity? |
Robbie Williams | Jan 20 2024, 11:13pm | In terms of each person they can do for whatever they wish. That is each persons own business if they wish We’re just organizing the event |
John O Connor | Jan 20 2024, 11:26pm | Ok. Thanks Robbie |
Irene Finnegan | Jan 21 2024, 12:22pm | Is there a GPX for this race or a map .... And do you know how much of road/trail/no paths/ etc is ......thanks ...and how many checkpoints.... |
Dara O'Brien | Jan 21 2024, 12:50pm | Hi Irene, the best GPX I’ve found is on the HiiKER app - E8 Coast to Coast. It starts at marlay park whereas this event start at Bray so that needs to be factored in. The HiiKER route turns south just outside Killarney and heads for Dursey island whereas the event needs is to go northwest at that point and follow the Kerry way on to Valentia via the bridge. So start and end need to be changed but the rest which is the vast majority is fairly accurate. |
Dara O'Brien | Jan 21 2024, 12:51pm | Also, I think there is a book with maps - called the Ireland Coast to Coast walk |
Eoin Hamilton | Jan 21 2024, 5:46pm | If there is any requirement for volunteers, I'd love to help out where possible. |
Rex Brillantes | Jan 21 2024, 5:59pm | So there's a tracker. What if a runner go off course then join to the track in a short distance. It's like cutting it short. Is it allowed.? |

Gavan Hennigan | Jan 21 2024, 6:33pm | Built the route for the craic, could be some mistakes, tried to take direct lines when not on way marked trails. https://www.strava.com/routes/3184218145223379542 |
Eric Llaurado Ortiz | Jan 22 2024, 11:16am | Hi Good to see the route, it looks like a long journey... I wonder if there will be any checkpoints / aid stations and places where to stop and rest or sleep or eat or have a shower etc? |
Eoin Hamilton | Jan 22 2024, 11:24am | Strava - Yack ;) Use HiiKER :) |
Robbie Williams | Jan 22 2024, 12:32pm | Eric and others Please reread race description Self sufficient That means it is up to you and your crew to sort all this out.. failing that we can increase entry to €10,000 and make it all inclusive :) Please do remember we are volunteering to make this happen |
Eric Llaurado Ortiz | Jan 22 2024, 12:52pm | Ok. |
