    Of course they can, if they meet the eligibility requirements, which have been clarified (somewhat).

    I think he was asking if they have merltvtge eligibility

    That’s what I meant. Anyone can run it but after last years mess is it clear that they can or can’t win the Irish title unlike last year

    Not like I’d be in it but just curious

    I'm in the same boat since Friday. Cold hit and body aching etc. I'm going to steam room tomorrow hopefully to clear it out a bit.
    It all depends, i'd say if it's a strong cold and the body is still tired and achy on saturday forgot about. If there's the remnants of the cold, then reduce the target. If it's all cleared up with 3 or four days to go then go for it. Disclaimer, this is all just personal opinion and may not be the best medical advice :)

    IMO...Just been through a tough taper week every twitch, ache, sniffle will be magnified by a million percent. the week will be endless and the world might seem to be falling apart.

    **DCM18 ** Mile by Mile guide.. If it helps :D

    Mile 1 the “Shuffle Mile”. Nervous smiles all round but we are on the way. Be careful of tripping and don’t do too much weaving in and out. RELAX
    Mile 2 has a downhill from Christchurch to the river and pace can pick up.
    Mile 3 slight uphill through Stoneybatter and careful of footing at first water stop. Lots of bottles on the road.
    Mile 4 can get narrow as you enter the Phoenix Park, so just relax and settle.
    Mile 5 to 7 through the Park. Slight uphill all the way but lots of room on the road to relax and take it all in. Now we are motoring. Shake out the shoulders to relieve tension and get to the #HAPPYPLACE.
    Mile 7 at Castleknock is the first of the WELCOME villages. Great crowds, atmosphere. Now you know you are in a Big City Marathon.
    Mile 7 to 10 has a few downhills back into the Park and will be quick enough. Don’t go MAD.
    Mile 10 has the first decent uphill where you run under the Motorway. Take it easy and it will be gone in a few minutes. Lose time if you have to but don't fight it.
    Mile 11 to 16 is back in town with crowds and water stations. Settle yourself. Analyse how you feel and what pace is comfortable. Take in the day and the crowds.They do help and lift the spirits. Passing halfway have a smile. On the way home.
    Mile 16 to 19. Lovely area through Kimmage, Terenure, Rathgar,. Fairly flat. Great crowds and buzz. Keep the legs turning you are on the way home. Make sure to keep drinking and fuelling. Vital time coming up.
    * Mile 19 to 22 is Make or Break. *
    Mile 19 to 20 Downhill first half of 19 and relax as nice pull out of Milltown for 2nd half of this mile. Just get up it handy and don't force it.
    Mile 20 to 21 nice gentle downhill into Clonskeagh but take it easy and use it to relax and focus. You have come along way. We will get home.
    Mile 21 to 22 is the toughie and just get up that hill at any pace but keep moving.
    Mile 22 to 23 has a nice downhill on Fosters Avenue that you can use to get Heart Rate back on track and steady yourself for home
    Mile 23 to 24 is reasonably flat except for climb at UCD flyover where you cross the Road
    Mile 24 turn the corner at Merrion Shopping Centre. Focus, dig in.. It is straight from here to finish line. No twists or turns, No ups or downs. So 1 foot in front of the other and dream of glory. #IcanIwill
    Hope this helps…!!
