    Last Years Thread

    This was my favorite race last year and I'm considering it again this year. Anyone heading down?

    Entry Procedure:
    ENTRY PROCEDURE FOR BALLYCOTTON ‘10’ ROAD RACE 2016
    The following is the entry procedure for next year’s Ballycotton ’10’ which will
    take place on Sunday March 6th. Once again, numbers are limited and there
    will be a combination of online and postal entries, as follows:
    1) Online entries will open on Tuesday December 8th at 2pm, when the first
    1,000 will be accepted. At 8pm the same evening a further 1,000 will be
    accepted, making an initial online total of 2,000. 2) For Athletics Ireland and Athletics Northern Ireland affiliated members plus
    those who ran the four races in the Ballycotton Summer Series 2015, along
    with those living overseas, an additional online facility will open on

    3) Postal entries: A PDF copy of the entry form will be published on the
    Ballycotton website on the evening of Friday December 11th, and will also be
    available in the usual local outlets.

    I have my alarm set! I did about 1:31 in the Dublin Half for 10 miles so I'm hoping to take 5-10 minutes off that, or at the least, break 1:30.

    Just a tip I had the link for the tickets open from earlier and started refreshing at 1:58, pretty sure it was still 1:59 (on my pc anyways) when the link became active so try later and get in a few mins before 8pm if you can.

    I got my confirmation email at 14:00 so I must have started entering the details by 13:58 at least.

    Be waiting at 7:55 tonight!

    I missed out. I'm a member of a club but I rarely go to the sessions these days. Is it possible for me to register tomorrow? If so any idea what I would need?

    Fair enough. I'm only around here a few years and really impressed with anything I've been to. The summer series are brilliant races for €5 each.
