    Fantastic news, what a great addition to the calendar. And if there's a clash with Dublin then it's no contest from my perspective.

    they also have a half so if you want to run Dublin you could still do the half as training!!

    Looks like it'll be a very scenic course indeed, possibly even better than connemara.

    But, if there is an atlantic storm coming from the SW on the day, then it'll be some blast... waaayhaaaaaaaaay.

    Best thing is it's on a Saturday, which fixes my big complaint about Connemara. I'd rather drive home across the country hungover the next day than straight after the race!

    Anyone doing Dingle this year?

    Im giving it a shot. I know 2nd half is meant to be very hard but for anyone who has done it previously can you tell me if the first half is reasonable?

    Here is the strava segment for the whole thing, I did the half two years ago and it was bumpy, the views do help take your mind off it a bit, from talking to others who did the whole thing the two hardest parts where, seeing everyone finish the half as they started off up a hill and two the actual big hill at mile 22-23
