    should be a good race on sunday.

    I have to do a 21m LSR on saturday in prep for the DCM.

    Not sure if i should do this race but its a local event and i want to support it.

    Will take it easy going around

    Between injury and holidays i haven't ran in almost 8 weeks. I was out yesterday and did 3.6 which went fine. I'm going to try for 5 on friday and if i come thorugh that i'll run on sunday. I know in can complete it, just don't want to do a pointless time.

    anyone know when the results will be available?

    A mate of mine did it and he is not sure if he broke 45 mins - forgot to start his watch at start!

    (he has no web access - txt'd me to look it up for him)

    Results are available here: http://www.precisiontiming.net/result/view/id/108

    It was a fast course. I knocked over two minutes off the time it took me to do the 10k in Kilkenny the week before.

    It was also good value at €15 entry and the medals were decent. All round very well organised.

    it was too much for me with an injury come back, i did the distance on Thursday and it was too much to try it again on Sunday with only a weeks running until my belt after 2 months out.

    Well done to all and i passed them on my way to Lidl !

    Well organised and well run ( excuse the pun ) i spoke to one of the organisers on sat and she was trying to get me to do it:D

    15 is great value for a chipped race and i'd love to see it as an annual event on the local calender.
