    Hi there, does anyone know of any running clubs in this area? I've searched on runireland.com and the nearest listed is UCD, which I guess is for UCD students. I've been running for about a year and could do with the extra encouragement/motivation of running in a group!
    thanks

    Thanks Mr T. Shergar just drop into Irishtown Stadium any Tuesday evening at 6.30 for a 6.45 group warm up plus track session, split by ability. Ask for Mike or Don. Next Tuesday there's a mad-looking mile handicap race for everyone I believe. There's also a pub quiz at Clarke's next Tues after training :)

    Thanks guys.
    I'm interested in marathon/distance training, do you have a group that does this?
    thanks again

    Yes absolutely. Tuesday's the track 'session', a bit harder and faster, then there are other, longer sessions at other times and places. Best to come down to get all the info.
