    Who's responsible for selecting such places for sporting events? The amount of events in Qatar and UAE is sickening. Money put before people's welfare.

    With their kind of money, you'd think they could cool the place for the runners!! ;)

    Would agree with you in general but in this case the IAU had problems finding a host venue. In fact, I think they may have had to cancel one of their races (100k maybe) this year as they couldn't find a host. Won't be a race for fast times. I suppose it's a championship race so focus on finishing position instead of time!

    It was hosted in Galway 2011,by Richard donavan,don't reaaly recall he got too much support from anyone in the ultra running gcommunity,as far as I can recall he got dogs abuse,.headline on Ireland's premier running site had a link to a radio station giving out about traffic restrictions if I remember correctly and nuthin about the the 30 or so of the world's top 50k runners being in Ireland,,,think it was won in the low 2:40s. .ultrapercy was the first Irish man in that day

    When is this race on? GOH running having only raced the DCM on Monday? He really is a machine!

    I'd question the logic behind that decision. Seems crazy and nonsensical to me

    Me too. It's an international vest! Hardly ideal preparation!
