Will there be water stations on the route?
Looking forward to it
liam kennyAug 18 2025, 11:11amMorning all,

Looking for few more volunteers both running and non to help out around reg,

Route is in reverse of last year but with finish line at same barrier from where you start, some technical under foot ground, ground is dry out there,

Early start at 11 30 for anyone that’s needs it, bearing in mind 160%

Parking and refreshments at the gap pub, it’s a 5 to 10 walk to the start to please allow extra time,

Registration is closing at 11 45 sharp,

Hope to have a water station at 11km mark will update towards end of the week on that one,
Sandra KellyAug 18 2025, 8:21pmHi Liam. I could help with a water station on Saturday if needed. 2007.sk at Gmail dot com

Mick HanneyYesterday, 12:28pmIf the weather holds you should get great views over Wicklow from the top of Croghan on Saturday.
If I understand the route properly you should be hitting the peak around the 7k mark after a testing climb which brings you up past the coffin stone on the EastWest map.
The out and back on the ridge has probably rarely been as dry.
Some nice challenging trails await no doubt.

@Liam - can you share a garmin link and or updated map, thanks.
