    Donadea 10km is on in North Kildare next Saturday. Ive done it as a tune up race the last few years 2 weeks out from the marathon. Its a nice run. 2 5km loops through the forest on even ground. There is tea and sandwiches and cake after the race too. Highly recommended

    Hey Will,

    Was looking up that race last night – they describe it as a trail run with scenic views, so I wasn’t sure how PB-friendly it would be? Just might do it though as it sounds like there’s a strong field competing.

    There aren’t many options this weekend near Dublin, but Erin did post up about this race on Sunday:

    Only disadvantage is that it’s the morning after the AGM. :-

    Ye it wouldn’t be a PB course. Its a bit undulating and a few bends in it but its a nice setting. The start is pretty fast as you are on the road for over a km running outside the forest. After about 1.8m you face a bit of a drag but its fine then. Here is my garmin file from 2012 http://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/232903071 so you can see the elevation profile. I’d suggest doing this race, let your hair down at the agm and have a nice recovery long run the next day!

    Online registration for Donadea 10k closes tomorrow (Thursday) at noon. On the day registration appears possible though too.

    Have registered for it, hopefully see a few other Piranha marathon runners there 🙂
