Lisa QuirkeFeb 3 2025, 9:46pmHi folks, please note change of date for this race. Can volunteers check they are available for the new date. Thanks!
Sam CroninFeb 6 2025, 1:25pmHi Lisa,

I am not available for the new date unfortunately so have removed myself from volunteering.

Best of luck with the race. Hope they have cleared all the felled trees. There was a LOT down when I ran it 2 weeks ago.
Lisa QuirkeFeb 6 2025, 6:13pmNo bother at all Sam.
Lots down alright but we're getting there.
See you at the next one!
Stephen O KeeffeMar 11 2025, 3:04pmHi Lisa. Will there be an early start option for the long course?
Lisa QuirkeMar 12 2025, 8:24pmHi Stephen, yes we'll have an early start at 10.30am.
See you Sunday!
Antonin KiefferMar 12 2025, 11:51pmHi
At what time does the short race start?

Lisa QuirkeMar 13 2025, 2:07pmHI Folks,
Many thanks to those giving their time to volunteer at the Mt Hillary Race on Sunday. Can all volunteers be at The Glen Theatre (P51 NX28) for 9am on Sunday and bring a hi-vis please.
Thanks, Lisa & Caroline

Just wondering if there is a junior race?

Best regards
Lisa QuirkeMar 13 2025, 3:44pmHi Mícheál, we have a kids race 1K approx at 10am.
An adult must run with them.
Thanks
Mícheál O'MullainMar 13 2025, 4:19pmMany thanks for the swift response Lisa.

Best regards
Antonin KiefferMar 13 2025, 7:10pmHi thanks for the answer
I would like to run the short race with my 12 year old daughter and her friend.
When I book it only gives me the option to buy an entry for myself.
Do I need to create a profile/membership for my daughter and for her friend first or is there another way?
It looks like all the race will be sold out soon, will it be possible to participate in the short race when the 100 entries are sold?
Thank you
Robbie WilliamsMar 13 2025, 8:09pmYep

Sign up as normal

You can pick the short course on the day when signing up

(5k & 10km)
Barry QuinnMar 13 2025, 9:14pmAny chance there’ll be more entries available? Looks like I missed the cut off.
Lisa QuirkeMar 13 2025, 9:39pmAntonin - yes, you must create a membership for your daughter and friend to enter the IMRA races.
Hope you got in on time!
Lisa QuirkeMar 13 2025, 9:43pmBarry - apologies the race is sold out. Unfortunately we're caught for parking so can't extend beyond 100 entries.
Barry QuinnMar 13 2025, 9:44pmI was carpooling if that helps at all.
Barry QuinnMar 13 2025, 9:45pmMy sister ‘2902’ has already entered. It was my turn to drive, my bad.
Antonin KiefferMar 13 2025, 11:09pmThanks Robbie and Lisa… too late for us unfortunately. Best of luck with the race
Lisa QuirkeMar 14 2025, 7:15amBarry - you could always bring her over and volunteer?...... box ticked and happy sister!
Barry QuinnMar 14 2025, 7:38amHad I not volunteered in Lisvernane a few weeks ago I would jump at the opportunity but with it being a 90 minute drive from home, we’d be running to the start line to make it for 10:50.
Brian MullinsMar 16 2025, 6:02pmThanks to Lisa, Caroline and all the volunteers for the brilliant outing this morning. The course has it all, and half way through it you’re wishing it didn’t! Great weather for it and a bunch of smiling happy faces at the end always tells you the story of a great outing. Thanks to Ewan for pushing it on the loooooonnnnngggg 3km fire road downhill to the finish, I definitely thought I was breaking the sound barrier on it but when you are passed by someone going Mach 2 the sound barrier doesn’t really seem that impressive anymore!
Hazel stapletonMar 16 2025, 6:23pmFantastic event thanks to the team's great work and attention to detail. The course was marked perfectly and the food was delicious.
raymond smithMar 16 2025, 6:38pmOnce again the guys from Mt Hillary put on a great show
