Arron and I have just entered the Westport Sea2Summit Adventure Race on the 7th of November. It's a long way off I know but they have very good deals that include accommodation that might be worth grabbing. It'd be good fun to get a group down! We're staying in the Westport Coast Hotel. The race has a Sprint or a 'Supreme' version. -> www.westportsea2summit.ie/Any takers? |

Maybe - I'm doing Adventure Racing National Series, so doing 5 races. Will do SCAR in Skibereen in October or S2S in Westport in Nov. Also doing Moxie (Blessington), Achill Roar and Killarney in case anybody else interested.

I'm interested in doing it Ben. It's a really good event and westport is a good spot.

I did the 'supreme' distance last year and the 'sprint' a couple of years back, in my no way biased opinion I would highly recommend this race and its location.
There's a particularly nasty climb about 10km after the mountain run, would recommend doing it a couple of times before the race. Both my hip adductor's cramping at the same time pedaling up the hill, nasty! I had a decent level of fitness going into it but I couldn't move for days afterwards.
Ive intentions of doing the marathon this year but if that doesn't go to plan ill stick my name down for this - Ben we could take this 'rivalry' into adventure racing too, id have the Belpark and local support behind me, you'll be lucky to make it out alive!

I've done the Sprint before and would highly recommend it!
Would love to give the Supreme a go this year but also have marathon intentions so will have to make a choice!
Great craic in Westport, they put on a good show that night.
Sure Mayo is a great place!!

Haha, game on Mark! I might have a few of the Fingal crowd behind me...you wouldn't want to mess with them, they'll show your Westport crew where to go! With no swim it could certainly be another close one!

Incidentally- my stepbrother has a place in Louisburgh- easily sleeps 6-8 and reasonable to rent if anyone needs somewhere to crash. I'll probably take it if I go down and will have plenty of space. airbnb.com/rooms/5536136?s=8 |

So who signed up? I'm in. Race now sold out. I'd like to sort accommodation, so Conal is your place available?? I'd not let me know who's interested and I can look for a place.

Should be Dave. I'll check tomorrow for you. Didn't book the race in time myself but I'll be able to get you a good rate I'm sure.
