*Reminder this race is open to
everyone. You do not have to be affiliated with a club/college for this
event."
The course is around the perimeter of the GAA pitches on the CIT
Campus, in Bishopstown, so the grass will be short(ish) and, unusually
for an Irish cross-country event, should be virtually clear of mud.
muck, cow-pats and many of the other usual Irish cross-country
"nuances". Apart from the weather, this will be more akin to a foreign
cross-country course...like Portugal, for example. It's a
great opportunity for a first-timer wanting to "test the waters"
of cross-country.

straight through and take either the first or second left, parking on
