Brian hutchinson | Jun 20 2024, 10:20am | Hi I would like to give notice that I am hoping to make an attempt at the Wicklow Round, starting 2:00am this Monday 24th June 2024. Looking forward to spending time in these glorious surroundings, but hopefully not more than 24h - fingers crossed! Brian Hutchinson 991 |
Graham K. Bushe | Jun 20 2024, 10:31am | Hi Brian. Wishing you the very best of luck. I hope everything goes to plan, and the weather is good. Enjoy your day in the Wicklow Mountains. |
Ciaran Croke | Jun 20 2024, 11:52am | Brilliant! Wish you the very best of luck Brian. Weather is looking good. Bring the sunscreen :) |
Sean Forsyth | Jun 20 2024, 12:14pm | Good luck Brian, hope all goes well on the day for you. |
Brian Mullins | Jun 20 2024, 2:04pm | Best of luck Brian. Not a bother to you after making Beara look so easy. |
Graham K. Bushe | Jun 25 2024, 1:44pm | Hard luck Brian. You had a great run considering that heat, combined with the vegetation in places.. I've no doubt you'll be back to have another crack at it. |
Brian hutchinson | Jun 26 2024, 12:24pm | A really big thanks to all for all your good wishes and support for my Wicklow Round attempt. I had fabulous day out, the weather and the mountains were at their finest; I had the best of support from my sister and son; and I loved it out there - but I retired at Sheepbanks (94km) having carelessly strayed off piste into dense vegetation one too many times and becoming exhausted trying to recover. No excuses and no regrets though; I’ll be back! Special thanks Primal Tracking for the tracker and to Richard Nunan for organising. |
