    Hi,

    Multiple events taking place on 15 June in and around Kildare Town. I’ve entered the 10k which will be my first ever organised event (bar school & parkrun).

    Anyone been before or entering this year?

    Congrats. I done the half a couple of years ago and will probably do the full this year.

    It's a decent event but I know people who only do the 10k because the half and full can be pretty quiet and on country roads with nothing to see.

    There are some unique things about the event which sets it apart. The medal is always very nice. You get a voucher for some real food at the end. Nothing big but really nice. And you get to run through the National Stud which is very nice.

    The only thing I'd caution about is the parking. Can be a bit tricky with so many people and there are a few spots that are private even on a Sunday so you need to have some coins just in case.

    Thanks Ref. My brother did it last year and lives nearby so I’ll leave the logistics to him. Best of luck.
