| Martin Cooney | Jul 13 2024, 11:13am | Hi John Kinsella, I have put myself in for First-Aid Officer. I can do whatever you need; Tail-Runner, First-Aid, General Helper if needed. Let me know closer to the time. Cheers, Martin. |
| John Kinsella | Jul 17 2024, 12:21pm | Thanks Martin that would be great. If anyone else is around on the day to help out it would be appreciated. |
| Lenny Antonelli | Jul 19 2024, 9:23am | Hi all, this will be my first IMRA race. Have been up Keeper Hill before but never on the open mountain route. Any thoughts on footwear for this one? Would prefer my trail runners (Altra Lone Peak) given the route is mostly forest track but if the open hill is wet enough to require fell runners for the full thing so be it. |
| Mags Hassett | Jul 19 2024, 11:12am | Hi Lenny, I was recently running in this area and wearing Altra Lone Peaks. They were totally fine and I plan to wear them for the race. Welcome to IMRA. |
| Lenny Antonelli | Jul 19 2024, 3:05pm | Thanks Mags! |
| Katie Nevin | Jul 31 2024, 1:00pm | Hello, is there any early start on this or is everyone taking off at 11am? |
| John Kinsella | Jul 31 2024, 8:14pm | Hi Katie, There will be a 10:30 am early start available. @Lenny, the back part is not boggy as it's all uphill. So quite good underfoot. If I was to race this course I' would wear max 3.5 lugs. John |
| Stephen O Keeffe | Aug 2 2024, 11:52am | What time do volunteers need to be there for in the morning? |
| John Kinsella | Aug 2 2024, 1:10pm | Hi Stephen. The Volunteers can arrive for 9:20 which will give us time to set up. See you all tomorrow and thanks. |
| Eric Llaurado Ortiz | Aug 4 2024, 9:51am | Thanks John Kinsella and all the team involved, the course and the finish area was fantastic. I've never been there and I loved it! |
| John Kinsella | Aug 4 2024, 1:46pm | Thanks Eric and thanks to all the volunteers who gave up time yesterday to help, with many driving long distances to do so. Video footage of the some of the race can be seen on the Youtube link below. https://youtu.be/POMzjZEt7Ko?si=bD3PinEP28TRoT2w |
