    Well done on the 1000M & well done on eating all that food, well needed after Portumna. Sure, you'll just have to keep it ticking over for Dingle now.

    What's your current 10K PB? 39 mins might be a big ask by October.

    Any truth in the rumour that you're secretly training for the 50K in Galway??

    Are you doing it? or will you be heading to Dingle again?


  • Registered Users Posts: 138 ✭✭Woundedknee.


    Will probably run the Marathon in Galway and leave the Dingle 50 Mile until next year. Are you doing it?


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 20,364 Mod ✭✭✭✭RacoonQueen


    Don't think so. Think I'll be sitting it out to get a decent time next year instead of an OK time this year. Might do the half again though, really enjoyed it last year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 138 ✭✭Woundedknee.


    Yeah same here. I'm doing too many long slow runs to give Dingle a good shot so it'll have to wait.
