    I'm sure in the course of a 48 hour race you will shake off the bug, pick up another one and no doubt have other such joys to look forward to!

    I'm jealous. How will we best keep track of you during the race? Apart from having a live feed from the food stop :)

    Best of luck in Athens. I'll be thinking of you still running all those hours before I head off for my little run around Connemara.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 930 ✭✭✭jeffontour


    Question: Who would have thought when I 1st encountered you 3 years ago during the Conn Ultra that you'd be setting off on a 48 hour racing blitz this week?

    Answer: I would have! You seemed crazy enough to try anything and nothing seems to have changed on that front. Best of luck with it, if you need encouragement to keep going at any time just think back to the projectile pooing incident of that Conn Ultra for motivation! :D

    Best of luck in Athens.

    All the gang in Leixlip look forward to the Twitterupdates:eek:

    All the best. You know what to do..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,418 ✭✭✭Aimman


    Ultraman started the race today at 11am Irish time and will be on the 1km loop until 11am Sunday (except for the odd well deserved snooze)

    There's no times available yet for the 48hr results, hoping they might start publishing them at the 6 hour interval.
