    Entries opened this morning, I think? Has anyone registered? Online registrations are either full or suspended, I can't tell which. Anyone know what's going on?

    Was the same last year, don't know why they are going with the same crowd again, lovely run though, can see why its popular.

    Looks like they have made it a ballot entry now

    "Due to the extremely fast selling nature of the event we have decided the fairest way to handle entries is by operating a ballot system"

    I am in the ballot. Would be my fourth year to do it. If I get an entry great if not ah well. It's a great race run by volunteers and would hate for it to go the Same way as ballycotton.

    It's a very good race but I decided to opt for Trim instead, less hassle:)

    Racism is now hiding behind the cloak of Community activism.

    Was torn myself and have done Trim before, but for me the t-shirt is the deciding factor :) . The t-shirt from Trim is just awful. Worth driving to Dungarvan from Dublin as an alternative :D

    A friend of mine was entering me as was away on hols last week, when he messaged me about the website fiasco didn't expect to get in but turned out all of the group he was entering made it. Guess we were lucky.

    Really wanted to do this. It came highly recommended from other people in our club.
    Registered for ballot but no joy so if any one that got lucky changes their mind I would gladly take it.

    I reckon Primo monumentally fu*ked this one up. Ballot system is fine except many people will put in duplicate entries if there isn't a system to deter it. I imagine this is what happened here hence the entries are still coming out.

    Hope it still sells out though

    Trim 10 mile is on the same day folks, might not suit some but plenty travel from far a field to Dungarvan every year. Great race also.
