Re: wicklow way ultra

Well done Dena, super result and a really great time!

Rock of Hell - 20th Feb - Gorey, Co Wexford

I've been on the committee of the Tara Rock GAA club for the past few years. We are holding a mud run / obstacle course event later this month as a fundraiser. It is promising to be great fun, and very very mucky, hopefully some 795'ers would like to enter it. Here is a post that I put up on boards....

Re: SwimRun Donegal

Very interested but maybe next year if I'm back at the swimming

Enjoy, looks deadly

Good man Shaughs, hopefully we both get in!
Not sure when, I'd imagine 1st/2nd week of Nov considering closing date?
