    I'll be coming from Drogheda, Is there any park and ride ? or would it
    be better to get a bus/train ?

    Well the train would be handiest as it drops you right beside Merrion Square (Westland Row).

    Might be more hassle than it's worth bringing the car, especially if you end up finding yourself in a serious rush.

    if you get there early enough there'll be loads of street parking available within a mile of the start. Come over the East Link and as soon as you get into the Bath Avenue/South Lotts Road areas you have a 10 minute walk to the start.

    Same applies for buses. Bank Holiday Monday timetable is the same as a Sunday - may not get you to the start on time. Was caught by this one year - the last thing you want is extra stress on that morning.

    I'm hoping that the table has worked okay. After last year's disappointment, I want to enjoy this race and come through it smiling and a bit happier with my time. Very edgy this week, I'll have to keep distracting myself till Monday.

    Just spotted that the clocks go back to Winter Time on the Sunday night, 26th October. What a way to mess with our heads.

    Even though I know that means I'm getting an extra hour in bed, I'm still gonna wake up extra early worrying have I set my alarm incorrectly with the hour change; am I an hour late instead of an hour early....aaaarrrghhh!

    How many people do ya reckon are gonna arrive up the start line an hour early now??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,704 ✭✭✭✭RayCun


    the clock change is the day before - you wake up Sunday morning and change the clocks, not Monday

    As a matter of interest what happened last year?

    Were you aiming for a similar time last year and ended up finishing in 4:52?

    Just curious as your times wouldn't be hugely different to mine so want avoid making any similar mistakes, if that's what lead to your disappointment?

    Does anyone know if the energy gels which will be given out around the course next Monday (screenshot attached) will be on sale at the expo this weekend? If not does anyone know where I could buy these gels?

    Yes they will have a discounted marathon pack or individual gels for sale at the Expo. The same gels on the course. High 5. These are the packs BTW.

    As a matter of interest what happened last year?

    Were you aiming for a similar time last year and ended up finishing in 4:52?

    Just curious as your times wouldn't be hugely different to mine so want avoid making any similar mistakes, if that's what lead to your disappointment?

    It was my first marathon and I had been following a training programme, the race series build up went fine so I wasn't expecting any major problems, although I was a bit nervous. On the day, both my calves cramped up, from mile ten or so onwards, after I think the Chapelizod section and the hills around there, I had covered 2 20 milers in training and had never got cramps before nor have I since!

    I had been targeting 4 hours 30 and was bang on time up to that point, but just couldn't keep running and as it was in both legs, I couldn't run it off. I kept walking as fast as I could and kept trying jogging for a few yards on a regular basis, but it really only eased out on the downhill section a few miles from the end and I clawed a little bit of time back then. It was disheartening, as I started with the 4 hours 30 pacers, then tried to keep up with the 4 hours 40 and then watched the 4 hours 50 go by.

    You never really know how it's going to go on the day, but at least I finished and over the winter I worked more on my core in different exercise classes, so I'm hoping that'll stand to me. I think I'm now fitter than last year and I'm faster this year than last in races, which is why I'm trying for 4 hours 20 this time. Reading Tunguska's course breakdown, I think I probably pushed myself too much on the hills, when I would have been better off easing back there and targeting faster sections later on. I'm hoping the 4 hour 20 pacers will give me a guide but if I need to drop back for a while I will. Best of luck Kop On.

    Super post and great advice, thanks for that. Really interesting (and slightly worrying!). Best of luck also, I’ve no doubt the tough experience of last year will stand to you.

    I’ll copy this post in to the Novice Thread as I think it worth a read.

    Did you hydrate well during the race? I think it can be linked to cramping?
    Good luck this year!!!

    Got my PB in Dublin after Berlin in 2011. Hoping to repeat with the same approach.

    Hi all, first marathon so nerves are starting to build! Trying to decide how best to go in on Monday - can anyone advise what is the best option for me coming from Naas?

    Options are get the train from Sallins to Heuston, drive to Red Cow Luas and go in from there, or drive in good and early. I am not that familiar with Dublin so any suggestions on where to park would be very welcome!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 108 ✭✭MaxPower131


    Can't believe under a week to go and no one has started weather predictions yet:D

    I'll get the ball rolling....

    http://www.accuweather.com/en/ie/dublin/207931/daily-weather-forecast/207931?day=8

    Not bad.

    As long as all this wind we're getting at the moment blows itself out by next Monday I'll be happy.
    I have no problem with rain but not even the mighty Valseline can protect us from the scourge of the wind.

    Either option would be good, parking in Heuston and Luas in is handy, you could also drive to City west Luas stop (plenty of parking) and get the Luas in from there.

    Lastly u could drive to Newlands Cross take a right up to the Kingswood estate and park in the large car park near the shops and Kingswood Lodge pub (FOC) and walk 5 minutes up to the Kingswood stop to catch a Luas in to Abbey Street in Town. Lots of people going to GAA matches go to City west or Kingswood.
    Going to take the Kingswood Luas option myself, as I live there anyway!
    :-)

    Did someone mention a 3:10 group?


    Speaking of which, am I correct in thinking that there's a 3.10 and 3.20 pacer, but no 3.15?

    It would suit me, to be honest. Running with the pacers doesn't seem to agree with me.

    Yes that's correct

    Happy toe nail Tuesday

    I'm surprised at the number of people that seem to be considering driving after the marathon, no way I'd be up for that! Driving after a 20 miler is bad enough.

    Agreed. Last year I had to get someone from my club to drive me home; and she had done the marathon too. I cramp up terribly after marathons.

    we're planning on a quick shower in the hotel then straight into the car and back to Cork...we'll be like planks by the time we get to the Sextant for pints :)

    Will probably end up driving out of the city, and hand over the reigns then for a motorway coma.

    Anybody know what high 5 gels are given out at mile 16 & 21. Is is just the standard ones or do they also have the iso gels? Any caffeine ones?

    They posted a while back that they would have the full range. Personally I wouldn't be relying on them though. I'll carry what I'll need myself.

    I'm sure this has been covered but I cant find the list in the thread. I see that there are pacers every ten minutes up to 5hrs but does anyone know if there are any other pacers such as 5:30 or six hours. Struggling with a back injury but really hate the thought of missing it. Would like to run/walk and would like a bit of company, especially if I am going to be six hours going around. Don't even know if my ipod (which I won't be listening to obviously) will last that long!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,704 ✭✭✭✭RayCun


    No, the last pacers are at 5 hours.
    I'm sure there'll be other run/walkers to fall in with though

    If so, what bus do I get and where to get to the expo from the city centre?
