So, what do I need to pack in my volunteer bag ?

• Baby wipes
• Phone incorporating stopwatch, camera
• Some plastic bags
• Pen and paper
• Spare clothes :eek:

And keep the rest of us updated! I want to know all the gory details before I get on the plane later :-)

I can't believe I just spent 16 minutes of my life watching last years video. Priceless! The sound-effects!

My favourite is the guy who asks if he's allowed to belch and the guy who overruns his beerstack and needs to run back.

Best of luck all. I might cycle by to have a look.

ballybrack side. you can park in tesco or seapoint rugby club/cabinteely football club and walk over

Can you leave the car there overnight?

PM I parked it at the back of shrewsbury lawn last year, just off the N11 and with a gate into the park beside the track.
To the south of the track you can park it in Shanganagh vale; same Idea as above but you walk into the track from the other side.

I'll be leaving a change of clothes in the car and leaving the bag in it overnight if anyone wants to drop something in the car just let em know.

so when is this about to start, I might come to cheer for you guys!

.

you can leave it in tesco overnight for sure. the rugby club car park will get locked though. Shrewsbury lawn is a good idea didnt think of that.

For those of you on the bus, there's a short cut into the park. From town, get off the second (I think) stop after Cabinteely village, if you pass the Esso garage on the left you've gone too far.

Have run wind adjusted PBs for both 100 and 200 today. Have finished my small dinner and it's now starvation mode until race time. I'm coming after you f**kers.

June 13th is going to be sweet. Run a 1500m PB, win the Beer Mile and then get hammered. This will be one to tell the grand kids

Sticking to sage advice of hard days hard, easy days easy, I might try my first session after the 1500 in the AAI Games tomorrow. Probably 2 X Brooklyn Lager with 30s recovery. Set a baseline to improve on over the next few weeks

One down, two to go

One's a dead certainty but I won't say which one

Joeseph Balls

Good luck to the brave participants. I look forward to seeing the video and joining ye next year.

Dublin bus are some jokers. 17 due at 17.50. There in plenty of time. Then about 5 mins before it's due it disappears off the list. Next one is 43 mins. Feckers. Have to go into town now.

Ps. Meno wins best belcher, world class.
Huge thank you to Bungy Girl, the whole night would have fallen apart without her. Fact.
Drama Queen award has to go to Adrian Hope you're ok!

Group of us in Synnotts. Where is everyone?

Those are amazing times, I'd be lucky to do it in 15 minutes, I'm not much of a drinker.
