This run went very well last night. Four of us met up and we're hoping to grow the group.

We're looking at organising 2 sessions a week, probably Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Please see the main thread for these runs, Night-time Trail Running in Dublin Mountains.

If you're thinking about coming along, put your name down and try not to think about it, and before long you'll be at the summit of Three Rock Mountain looking down at the lights of Dublin.

Headtorches are essential for the trails.

Maybe - depends on family stuff on Saturday. Will text you maybe?

Saturday 8th Dec
Time : Very flexible, but say 10am
Distance : Circa 15 miles anyone?
Venue : Also flexible, Phoenix Park? Clontarf kinda area? Somewhere new in Dublin?

I was supposed to do that too, but I have a few aches and pains from not keeping up with my stretches and core work, so speed work right now is a road back to my physio

Maybe I will do the 10k at marathon pace for a bit of a tester without going mad, and finish 10 mins behind you [or whatever] and we can do a few afterwards?

Would that work for you?

Funeral to go to in the morning Im afraid - so running tomorrow at all is off agenda

Saturday 29th Dec
Venue: Phoenix Park, Papal Cross car park
Time: 11 am
Distance: 10 - 13 mile run
Pace: Flexible

I'd love to do this one-way with ye, but I'm afraid my pace is WAY slower at the moment and there's no way I'd be keeping up
But if anyone wants to do this at 9:30 - 10:00 min miles I'd be happy to tag along

Why don't you join us anyway Emer? we can keep the pace slower till we get to your neck of the woods and then pick it up on the way back.

For anyone else thinking of joining us, it's a really great route;great scenery and plenty of hills (especially good for Connemara-bound boardsies). We basically run along the dart line so there is plenty of scope for a shorter run. There is free parking in the carpark beside the dart for anyone driving


Sunday 13th Jan
Meet: - In front of Sandycove/Glasthule Dart Station http://goo.gl/maps/WSH7P
Time: 1pm
Distance: 20 mile run out and back to Bray
Pace: Flexible, probably 8- 9 Min Miles

Any interest in a Saturday morning run around the park?

Leave it wih me, I'm interested but can't commit yet. I have to do 21 and there is no way I'm doing all them on my own! I'd be venturing towards 8:15 more than 9min/miles though if thats ok?

Cheers for the offer lads but ye missed a great run around a wet Phoenix Park LAST Saturday Have a few things on so don't think I'll be able to commit to a day and time this weekend though.

Saturday 16th February
Venue : Phoenix Park, Papal Cross car park
Time : 9am
Distance: 21 miles (or part thereof)
Pace: 7.45-8:30 min miles

I know the Donadea 50k is on, but if anyone else is up for an LSR let me know! Time, Venue and Pace are flexible enough.

As above - I can do 7-8 miles - unless you want to start at 8:30 :-)

Will take you up on that offer! 9am will be the earliest I can do though as I'll be going up the the big smoke that morning!
