Tipperary....

Limerick....
In Limerick, there is a 6.2 km race in Croom which starts at 2pm.
More info from Donal O'Donoghue...
The sixth annual Joey Hannon Memorial 6 km road race takes place in
Croom, over the same course as last year.
This event took place in excellent weather last year, and the forecast
for Wednesday is similar!
Registration is at the local Community Centre.
Walkers set out at 1:30 and runners at 2pm.
The race starts outside, and proceeds downhill, past the AIB, and
turning sharply right onto Main Street.
At the far end of the town, turn right near the Garda Station, and then gradual uphill, passing the Mid-Western Regional Orthopaedic Hospital.
The middle section of the race is over quiet narrow country roads, with slight humps over disused railway bridges.
There is a sharp left at Caherass Nursing Home, which brings you back onto the old main Limerick Road.
While this is a wider section of road, you will encounter road traffic, and probably begin to overtake the walkers, who may be several abreast.
The final few hundred metres will overlap with the start, so remember there's a *steep* hill ahead right at the end.
Refreshments and spot prizes in the Community Centre.
There's a 4 mile race in Moyglass Co.Tipperary called the Ned Kelly 4 mile on the 17th of March
