    This tends to sell out pretty quickly so you need to be quick off the mark. Same day as the Trim 10 mile so a bit of choice for this day anyway!

    Transfers have been allowed in this race over the last couple of years, but please wait for thread title to be changed before trying to transfer entries, if it hasn't been changed to verify posts on transfers will be allowed, please just poke one of the mods and we will change it.

    It doesn't seem to specify a time, at least not anywhere I can see it. Maybe that's by design and they'll open it at midnight or something?

    Last year was an absolute disaster - website crashed and they ended up going to a ballot.

    This years event is on Event Master so looks like they ditched the crew that were running it last year, can’t think of their names but they are Amateur cowboys.

    Aren't eventmaster the same ones who run Dublin marathon entry system, which crashed during the summer? :)

    No idea. Haaa. If a companys IT infrastructure can’t handle a few thousand hits, it really needs look at itself.

    looking forward to this, I'd imagine 9am but if I'm still awake after midnight tomorrow night I'll see if it's open then. There's also a postal entry so print off the entry form if you're worried you'll miss out.

    I did Trim last year. I'm torn between Trim and the John Treacy, which I've never done.

    Anyone able to offer pros or cons of each?

    never ran Trim but if you like a good spread of food afterwards then Dungarvan is out on it's own! This was my first time doing it, plenty of parking around the town, the race hq was about 1km from the finish line but it was a lovely walk in the sea air. No hard hills on the route and a good buzz around the finish area.

    Sold out in less than an hour I’d say.

    Had no problem entering bright & early this morning but I see that entries closed at 11am. That's impressively quick to sell out.

    Totally forgot until just now. Hopefully they’re allowing transfers this year.

    edit: they have a waiting list

    No idea. They've said on Facebook that there will be one, asked how I can get on this waiting list.

    This is a disgrace.
    They should have made allowances for people who don't have Internet. They should have taken entries over the phone. Why was I not consulted personally before they let it sell out?

    I demand to see the full expense records of anyone who has ever ran this race

    Etc etc
