Curious to hear if anyone is interested in the three upcoming IMRA trail runs? I've been meaning to go to IMRA runs all summer and won't likely get out for these unless other people are also going (other people who can perhaps also give me a lift?  ) www.imra.ie/leagues/view/id/245 (info pasted below for ease of reference) DATE TIME VENUE/EVENT CODE CLIMB DIST. DIFF. Wed Jul 29 7:30 PM Djouce (Earl's drive) trail ELD 120m 8.00km 4 Wed Aug 5 7:30 PM Glen of the Downs GDT 285m 8.00km 5 Wed Aug 12 7:30 PM Devil's Glen DEV 283m 8.50km 5 |

I'd like to do them but it will depend on work commitments, I'll try to make a call on each one a day or two in advance and post on here.

I'd be very interested, I've signed up for Sea2Summit in November so I need to get climbing!! I could try and make the Djouce and Devils Glen races if I can escape the office on time

Sounds good. Hope to see some of you at the above mentioned races. Katherine, we'll definitely chat because a lift wold be great!
I'm doing Killarney (KAR) in October, and I'm in the same boat as you Ben - need to run some trails!

What time do you need to leave to be there in time? Will take me at least 35 min to get there, finishing at 5:30.

That's grand I'd imagine. It's less than half an hour in the car.

By the way in case anyone is unfamiliar with the imra runs there is a rule that "As of 2015, all runners must carry at all times during each race a minimum of a shower and windproof jacket". I'm not sure how strictly they enforce it but it does cover summer races so definitely bring one if you plan to take part!

And consider insect repellent too, did a trail run this morning and the flies in the forested sections were driving me demented!

Rory - good call about the bug repellent! I've managed to find a seat in one of the Carpool offerings on the IMRA site to get to Djouce, but I'll need to lift to get back into the city. Hoping one of you kind souls will have some space for me |
