    With Ballycotton off the menu for 2018, might make the entries for Dungarvan sell out a little quicker, so heads up, entries open on November 1st.

    This is one of my long term 'want to do' ones so need to make some decisions on what I wanna do in 2018. Long time (years) since I did a series of run races...need to get that hunger back.

    Absolute brilliant race last year, one of the favourite ones of the year. Hmming and hawing about this though as Trim 10 mile is same day and not sure if I can wrangle the trip down again

    Is Trim not the following weekend? Was looking for a date for it there when I was posting this but couldn't find one for 2018.

    Someone asked me at the weekend if I'd entered yet, almost had a panic attack as I know how fast it sells out! Glad to see they were wrong & it's not 'til Nov as normal.

    This is firmly on my radar - had originally planned a 10 Mile treble up of this, Mallow and Ballycotton but will have to settle for a double up at this stage.

    Ran this back in 2012 and enjoyed it - I think I even passed out John Treacy himself around halfway :D

    Cobh and Blackwater are 2 other very good 10 mile races in Cork if you are looking for alternatives to Ballycotton

    I don't expect that there will be a "Ballycotton-style" rush on this (although.....) so you won't have to be sitting by your PC at midnight.

    Based on these posts, in case it does sell out quickly, I'm in. Time to tick this one off the bucket list. 1:30pm start time is ideal for traveling on the day too.

    Be careful signing up I tried using this link: https://www.dungarvan10mile.org/ and it looks like I've paid for a West Waterford AC membership rather than actually signing up for the race!

    I came here to see if anyone else did the same thing - thankfully I'm not the only eejit!

    Unless the link was wrong on the page? The membership and the race was the same price so I didn't cop it until the confirmation email came through for:

    "West Waterford A.C. Membership 2018 - Running-Membership - Adult Club Membership"

    I entered through this link:
    https://register.primoevents.com/ps/event/Dungarvan10Mile2018

    I've emailed them to cancel the club membership !!

    At least there appears to be the option of transferring your online entry this year (up until 12th January) - should make for a lot less no-shows on the day.

    Got there with 5 places left in a queue and watched it tick down to zero.

    On the waiting list so hopefully people that double booked this morning get sort and it frees up spaces
