Race notice - GR8KM in Mitchelstown...Fri 10th Aug 2012

This is a notice for a race coming up on Friday, the 10th of August at 7:30pm. The GR8KM as the name suggests is an 8 km road race on the roads around Mitchelstown in North-East Cork. As the 9th race in the Ballyhoura Active Series, it is likely to attract runners from North Cork, Limerick and Tipperary. 


With the M8 motorway, Mitchelstown is now only 50 kms or a 35-40 minute drive from Cork City so it's an option for city based runners as well.

I'll have a full preview of the course just before the race.

Just spotted the part about spot prizes for free enteries to several marathons ! Good deal ! Did it last year and it is a good test of stamina with the hill up main street at the start ! Will probaly go now !
