This website contains information about some of the road races in the counties of Kerry, Limerick, Clare, Tipperary and Waterford in Munster, Ireland. For races in Cork, see the Running in Cork website which is the largest athletics website in Munster. That site also contains plenty of national and international news items as well.
Great turnout for a great cause. Thanks to all who hand a hand in putting it on.
This event was unique in that even with a 0430 start time there was still a crowd. Torches were definately needed along the path and helped make the set the tone. The car head lights, while well intended, blinded those coming back into them. If this is to be a run and a walk the runners should be routed back along the road with the walkers/dogs/kids doing the out and back on the path. Two runners were in front of me and ran past the turn around before a steward arrived. I hung around the finish a bit but they didn't show. I hope there was a muffin left for them.
