I'll be home that week on holidays and always wanted to see Newgrange. Sounds like a great day out and I'll definitely be trying to make it, I'll bring a few along to walk it too.

That's gonna be a tough finish. It's a long drag from the entrance to the farm to the finish

It's not as bad as you think. Yes, there's a climb after the farm and another down and up around 3k but it's fairly flat round 4K and from the right turn to the finish is all downhill.
