Connemarathon 2010 - All welcome

[El Gordo]

Here she is...still terrified of hills, but willing to give a try. Would it still be possible to enter, let's say, beginning of December? Anyone an educated guess?
Trying out the hill-concept first half November, will take it from there.

Greetings Cloggie, and welcome to the RC forum.

Is it the Connemara hills you're concerned about? No need to be too anxious. Yes, Connemara has plenty of huge hills but the race is all on a tarmac road, and although it does undulate, there is only one tricky hill, near the end, which goes on for quite a while. But you won't be scrabbling up any mountainsides on bleeding hands, or anything like that.

As for entry in December, I simply don't know. I read somewhere that the race does always sell out, and that it's the half that sells out first. Your best bet would be to email the organiser, Ray. You'll find a contact email on the Connemarathon website. I mailed him a few months ago with a question, and he responded fairly quickly. He may be willing to reserve you a provisional place if you give him a good reason.

Hope you make it.
