| Andrew Moore | Jan 26 2025, 1:15pm | Apologies I see it in race rules. Also, can you delete forum post. I can't see an option. |
| Richard Nunan | Jan 26 2025, 1:23pm | Hi Andrew, We don't have the option to delete a forum post. But I'll start a new one on MMU once I get all updated. Thanks and see you on the hills soon. |
| Andrew Moore | Jan 27 2025, 7:20am | Thanks Richard, :) |
| Eoin McDonnell | Jan 31 2025, 7:56am | Hi Richard, Sorry to repeat a question, I know a few people who are away on either the 22nd or 29th. Is the race definitely the 22nd? Thanks |
| Richard Nunan | Jan 31 2025, 8:16am | Hi Eoin, Apologies for the confusion. The event will now go ahead on the 29th of March due to logistical challenges. I will update the events page tonight. Entries will open Monday. Thanks Rich |
| Niamh Fitzpatrick | Jan 31 2025, 8:40am | Glad to hear race is guaranteed for the 29th March. Thanks for confirming |
| Richard Nunan | Feb 1 2025, 9:27am | Great to hear you will make it Niamh along with more of the crew I hope. Couple of small points. Entry's will open tomorrow morning 2nd of Feb The race is not a Qualifier this year for the Euros. There will not be an early start- the start time has been moved back and the Cutoffs moved forward to accommodate this. It's based on last years times. We will not be including Maulin on the way out or the way back. HURRAH! |
| Brian Kitson | Feb 1 2025, 3:58pm | Looking forward to it. The entry fee is set to €30. Why the price increase? It was €25 last year (just €20 in 2021). |
| Richard Nunan | Feb 2 2025, 9:06am | Morning Entries are now open. Brian - first price increase in 7 years. Price increase is to cover the increase in price of mugs (due to material costs and electricity) that have iteratively increased by a euro year on year over (4 euro) and we will have those delicious Gourmet Hot Dogs (7 euro) for everyone, you may have missed them last year. Thanks |
| Eoin McDonnell | Feb 2 2025, 10:00am | 30 euro is very reasonable for a 50km |
| Dave Evans | Feb 2 2025, 10:39am | 30 euros is unbelievably reasonable these days for an ultra Eoin MMU is and always has been the best value for money ultra race in Ireland. |
| Andreas Maly | Feb 2 2025, 3:21pm | Price is really fair compared to other events. Races are always very well organized. |
| Alistair Hodgett | Feb 2 2025, 4:53pm | No Maulin, one start time...all great stuff. Any chance that some of those Gourmet Hot Dogs are vegetarian :) |
| Richard Nunan | Feb 2 2025, 5:10pm | Alastair, we had Veggie and Vegan last year. Will work on the same this year. It's All to race for :-) |
| Ger OToole | Feb 11 2025, 7:25am | Hi, I can’t seem access the links to the maps in the race description (maybe an issue with my phone), but wonder if it is possible to check if the links are working properly. Thank you. |
| Andrew Reynolds | Feb 17 2025, 8:36pm | hello, what OS map covers the route if i wanted to buy an actual paper map? |
| Richard Nunan | Feb 17 2025, 10:13pm | Andrew, you can pickup a Map of tye wicklow way online OSI 56 has the route from Glen Cullen Hill to Pier Gates. So missing about 1km at start. |
| Richard Barnwall | Feb 21 2025, 2:34pm | Hi, The MM is my first IMRA race of 2025. I have paid for the annual membership as part of the race entry as per the new system for 2025. Just wondering if I should have received my race number for the year? Or will I get this on the morning of the race? Thanks a mil Looking forward to it :) |

| Johnston Kirkpatrick | Feb 21 2025, 9:03pm | Hi Eoin is there overnight parking close to the start line for a van ? |
| Angela Flynn | Feb 22 2025, 1:30am | Johnston, you can park at our house A98EP93 if you don’t get a better offer, I’ll be doing the ultra too hopefully, Ange |
| Richard Nunan | Feb 22 2025, 7:53am | Just below the Pier Gates, there is a lay by where you could park over night. It was done last year. Also room for a van parked at the Pier Gates. |
| Robert Warman | Feb 22 2025, 11:32am | Is the eastwestmapping Wicklow Way Guide acceptable as a map for the mandatory kit? (https://eastwestmapping.ie/product/the-wicklow-way-2/) Thanks |
| Elva Donnelly | Feb 24 2025, 11:39am | Hi Richard, added myself as First Aid officer but happy to be a reserve on that and can do whatever else needed as volunteer pre race if needed? wasn't sure if having few FA worth having. |
