18-05-2014 9:03pm#1Evening all,
I'm a newb to this whole running lark, and I was just wondering if anyone had any info on the Summerhill 4k, which I intend to run in a fortnights time. By info I mean:
Bib Numbering - Is that a thing at craic like this?
Even the vaguest idea of the whole finish line malarkey would be of use. I havent a clue about things like medals or commemoration of events that isn't competitive archery.
Start Time - There's some confusion on t'internet about the time it starts, saying 9.30 or 1pm. HELP!
Thanks a lot guys and gals,

Yes you will have to wear a bib number, i dont know what you mean by finish line 'mularkey', as regards start time what i've been told its 1pm. Email the organiser if you want 100% confirmation, same regarding medals. Info is limited alright & i'm only giving what i know from living close to the event. Regards course info see my other post.0 -

Yay, bib numbers are totally fine by me, I want to keep it as proof to myself of reaching goals, etc!
My apologies, I meant is it a big deal, photos and the like? I texted Martin Gavigan the chap who seems to be in charge of the whole shindig, but he just helped me with the sign up info. 1pm is grand, 9.30 would have been better for my morning runner self but hey, ho - gotta roll with the punches :P I might give him a bell on Tuesday morning and make 100% sure of everything.
Now that I think of it, 1pm is probably best for the Fun Run, since the serious runners will be out for the early 10k. It makes sense now
Thanks for all the help,
I appreciate it

Done and done!
What a stunning day - a bit overcast, but some sun here and there. Lovely and warm (and thank goodness for the extra water station: 3.5km and 6.5km as well as finish line!)
The route can best be described as 'scenic and mildly undulating' - really quite lovely and fairly easy, with many small little 'hills' along the way. route profile: http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/fullscreen/433304254/
The race was well organised, the day well planned and executed. Tea/coffee and sandwiches in the community centre hall afterwards was a lovely little bonus. The fruit at the finish line was a real sweet treat too. Overall A+++ to the organisers - you guys did a fantastic job, and a great day was had by all. I'll be back next year for sure! 0 -
