Our local adventure race returns for its 6th year - http://www.blackstairsadventurerace.com .
Entries open and the early bird for 55 euro is great value.

This is a brilliant event, which throws up great 795 battles every year. Last year Elaine Gibson was 2nd woman home, Ross battling up the front and Alan, Nigel, Frank, PJ, Mike and I all finishing within minutes of each other.

Yep I'm doing this ...if it's half as much fun as last year it will be Epic.
Anyway let's get the ball rolling with the Smack Talk ..... I'll be waiting for you at the Finish Tully with Beer in hand pointing out the proper finish line :lol:

Well one thing is for sure - you won't be 135 places behind me at this, like the Killarney race :D

That was great 'fun' last year, I'm in. Lads try not to look so refreshed by the time I get over the line...it's slightly soul destroying :lol:

Just registered there tonight for The 7 Steps . Can't wait . If we get some members registered we could possibly organise some trail runs and maybe even some Kayaking too .

Highly recommend this event for anyone it's a blast to do ,no matter which distance you do .
