    May I ask why the change?
    50miles is nice but surely there would have been interest in a 100km.

    Now if only there was a non-track 24hr early in the year that would mean I wouldn't have to go to UK.

    The course will be a 6 mile loop in staplestown kildare near donadea forest. Starting time possible 7am but not 100%. Price not decided yet. It will be run in conjunction with a marathon and 50k run by east of Ireland marathon series. Signups for those races wont be open till mid march and will have a combined entry of 80 between the the 2 races.
