    I was wondering how I could enter the race this year?

    I was going to do it last year but the rules said only men were allowed.

    My sisters ran last year for breast cancer and said that there were loads of men doing it last year in drag.

    The reason why I want to do this is that Ive lost many close relatives and friends to cancer and I want to support my sisters in the run this year.

    I would guess they enter using false information and in turn prevent a female from getting a race entry as the race always sells out.

    It's a moot point, tbh. The deadline for entries was on the 18th of April.

    A bit off topic but does tHe flora mini marathon give out tshirts (or medals?) I thought I remembered entering a tshirt size when registering so thought I might get it when collecting number and goody bag yesterday in Kilkenny but no. Maybe they don't give them, or is it at the finish?

    I don't think there's tshirts but there's definitely a medal at the end. Most people end up wearing a charity tshirt anyway.
