| Robert Cunningham | Aug 4 2025, 7:25pm | We are looking for more volunteers for Templehill race this weekend. |
| Brian Hourigan | Aug 7 2025, 12:09pm | Hi Robert. Is the terrain that is before/after the Templehill/Paradise Hill section trail, fire road or open mountain as well? Just wondering so can bring the appropriate trail runners. Thanks |
| Kevin Lenihan | Aug 8 2025, 6:43am | The first 4.5km is fire road uphill, next in open mountain up and down off temple hill, then it is a mix of mostly fire road with a small section of single track trail in the middle so you’ll need comfort, grip and then comfort and then a little more grip! |
| Robert Cunningham | Aug 8 2025, 3:45pm | Exactly Kevin. We have a bigger field for parking so please bring €2. Parking only in the field please. |
| Brian Hourigan | Aug 8 2025, 5:13pm | Grand stuff. See ye on sunday |
| Karlo Kraljic | Aug 9 2025, 9:28am | Do you want/need more help tomorrow? |
| Patricia Ryan | Aug 9 2025, 2:26pm | Yes please Karlo. |
| Robert Cunningham | Aug 9 2025, 5:18pm | Thanks to everyone who has volunteered. We have everything covered now. Email going out to volunteers shortly with duties for the day. |
| Louise Murray | Aug 9 2025, 7:17pm | Hi Robert, just clarifying - I signed up as a 'running' volunteer helper for tomorrow . Just checking as I didn't get an email, is it that you have enough people who aren't running, and don't need me ? Just said I'd check (incase it was actually that I missed an email !). Thanks a million, Louise |
| Patricia Ryan | Aug 9 2025, 7:24pm | Hi Louise, we have the running volunteers down for registration duties. Please can you be there for around 9.30am. Thanks a million. |

| Hazel stapleton | Aug 10 2025, 7:25pm | Thanks to the team today for another great day out. The course was varied and very challenging (for me anyway!). The marking was 'spot on' and the convenient parking, convivial chatter and delicious eats, all added to the overall success of the day. |
| Seán O Lionaird | Aug 10 2025, 7:58pm | Great day out Thanks to everyone involved |
| Martin Cooney | Aug 10 2025, 10:17pm | Massive Thanks to Robert, Martin and all the volunteers on a great race. It was well marked and volunteers at all necessary junctions. The open mountain section was especially well marked in the cloudy, misty conditions. Thanks for the treats afterwards especially the coffee cake- delicious! |
| Brian Hourigan | Aug 10 2025, 10:36pm | Folks that was a savage race. One of the tougher ones I've done this year. As Hazel said, the marking was spot on, really made a big difference with the mist and rain. Thanks to Robert, the volunteers and the runners for a fun but challenging day out...going up templehill is never easy. Fair play to all.the volunteers who were stood out in the rain, wind and mist to guide us. It's much appreciated, some of younwere a sight for sore eyes after slogging up the climbs. PS: Wouldn't be against a Galty League in IMRA with this and all the Galty races included :) |
| Robert Cunningham | Aug 11 2025, 12:42am | Thanks to all the volunteers for stepping up, especially Martin Hennessy for taking over as RD so I could go to Croke Park to cheer Galway to victory. Brian, a Galty league has crossed my mind before, definitely one to think about. Martin there was no Coffee cake, it was Carrot cake you enjoyed. Thanks to Tricia for all the num nums. |
| Brian Flannelly | Aug 11 2025, 7:10am | Results are now up for this event - any questions/queries on them, please email: brian <dot> flannelly <at> imra <dot> ie |
