DUBLIN, IRELAND (Team Geared Up) Tomorrow sees an unfortunate clash between the 4th race in the IMRA winter league and the National Senior Cross Country. The mountain race is being held in Carrick mountain in Wicklow and the race distance has just recently been lengthened to 11k (bit of a long one for the Winter league?) and with the forecast being for wet and windy weather, people would want to come prepared for the worst!!
The Woodies DIY Senior and Junior Inter Club Cross Country Champs takes place in Queen’s Dub playing fields and Barnetts Demense, Belfast on the same day. Event website here. Clonliffe Harriers squad will include Ireland’s top middle distance international Alistair Cragg.
I’m not saying where I’ll be but it’s enough to say I’m disappointed with the clash of these two events. I’ll have to write a strongly worded letter to some members of the IMRA committee….where to start?…….. ;-)

You should speak to the chairperson directly I think ;-)
Cool, didn’t realise this was on. Might see if I can make the winter league race and then pop over to the Bouldering Meet.
Might see you there!
Great race in Glenealy today. People going astray on the course made it interesting. :-)
Regards,
Mick
Ah Neal you didn’t make it to the WL race! :( So what exactly goes on at these bouldering meets then?
Ais, how d’ya get on? I guess you did Belfast XC Champs? Carrick was tough! wasn’t one of the ones who got lost and ended uo doing the short course instead! Although, maybe would have been better if I did! Still feeling the pain!
Aw Mick if only you could’ve done me a favour and made a few of the females go wrong…..(because I wasn’t there!)
Jackie hope you’re feeling better now. Belfast was really tough, and I went out too hard and suffered a little. I’ve no cross country expereince this season and it shows! Glad I went though, Clonliffe girls got Gold Medal in Grade B!
Ais,
The girls in the know had already recced the route so I couldn’t lead them astray if I wanted to
Well done in Belfast.
Mick
