  2. Great race. Superbly organised, faultless in fact. Surely deserving of a bigger turnout. Those who entered got their moneys worth that's for sure.

    Good test of stamina. Superbly organised race, plenty of stewards, good water stations and beautiful running conditions all in a good cause. Where else would you wish to be than here in Passage tonight?

  7. One thing I noticed was a lack of direct participation locally from the GAA and soccer clubs. Compared to other races where there is huge local involvement the GAA and soccer clubs don't seem to want any of their members actually running the race. This isn't to take away from a brilliantly organised event but just an observation, given that the numbers are v low for a race with a good location.
