    might give this one a go, few quick questions?

    (1) How much is the entry?
    (2) Is the standard very high, for instance is it all good club runners that take part?
    (3) Whats the course like?

    Thanks in advance
    Jim

    €5.00 entry for adults, €3.00 for juveniles

    Home-made scones and jam freely available. I can seriously recommend them:p

    The event attracts a good spread of athletes, with 48ish in the senior/junior/masters race last year. A well supported juvenile program as well.

    They describe the course as "undulating" but there is a good hill in it that you traverse 3 times. A good old-fashioned cross-country course, none of yer parkland crap;)

    Meath novice/masters cross-country will take place on same course a week later

    You have to pay a 'leaving tax', those Meathmen are cute hoors.
