Yes it’s that time of year where it decision time for the Dublin marathon 💡
It’s less than 14 weeks away 😮 and given the level of interest at the run sessions our very own super coach Maria is offering to look after a special “Piranha Marathon training Group”
Maria is suggesting that everyone will need to commit and have a plan in place with 12 weeks to go to the race (that the bank holiday Monday)and we are also hoping to get fitness testing completed before this so we can be more scientific about the zones and pace you need to be training at
We need to understand the overall level of interest so we can finalise a plan. Can you revert and advise your interested in doing the race and also interested in getting the fitness test done which will cost €55 each but we will try to get group discount and the club might help out here if someone can tell me who I should speak to one this

23rd July 2014 at 9:50 am #1962darraghkParticipantI’m interested. Would be my first. Would like fitness test, that would be a first as well!
23rd July 2014 at 9:53 am #1963SmcguiParticipantYep I’m in for both. Also have done neither before. My aim would be just to complete it! 😯 😉
23rd July 2014 at 10:29 am #1964RoryoParticipantCheers Tadhg.
Yes to marathon and possible yes to fitness testing
Rory23rd July 2014 at 10:44 am #1965SeanoParticipantHi Tadhg,
I’d be interested in doing both too! Also, I just noticed but there is half a half price entry to the rock and roll half on groupon. Link below.
Cheers – Sean

23rd July 2014 at 10:51 am #1966piradminKeymasterHey tadhg, sounds amazeballs. I’m still deciding on the this 😉 It’s a daily thing. One minute I’m up for it the next I remember the horror of seeing people stumbling, moaning and falling down fosters ave 2 years ago. It was like something out of Michael Jacksons Thriller video and I swore then I would never ever do one. 🙄
If I do decide to torture myself, which will probably happen 😮 I’d definitely be on for this and it would be incredible to have Maria helping us.
We did a member offer for V02 testing with Health Matters before _ http://www.myhealthmatters.ie/” onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;
€55 per person, but I’m sure we can negotiate a better price if there is enough of people23rd July 2014 at 11:10 am #1967loubennyParticipantim in ! i think 🙄
23rd July 2014 at 11:29 am #1968danitongeParticipantHi Tadhg – I am new to piranha but would love to set myself a big goal like this. Sign me up for both please. Thanks Dani

23rd July 2014 at 11:52 am #1970alandugganParticipantTadhg, I’m in and I promise to cut out the sunday sessions and limit my all-ireland celebrations to a week (this is the year)
You can stick down cawleys name for this as well
23rd July 2014 at 11:58 am #1971BrianCahillParticipantHi Tadhg,
I’m interested in both. Haven’t been to any run sessions yet but Marathon’s as good an excuse to start as any
23rd July 2014 at 12:02 pm #1972RobMcDonaldParticipantHi Tadhg,
I’ve couple of races in August that will have my focus but after that it’s DCM. So please put me down for both.

Sounds great. I am interested but have the small complication of doing an Ironman in 4 weeks! With tapering / recovery I don’t know how much of the training program I would be able to take part in. Keep me in the loop and I will have a think and maybe talk to Maria at training some evening.
Would also be interested in the fitness test.
Thanks, Jonny23rd July 2014 at 12:28 pm #1976valerie clintonParticipantHI Tadgh,
Like last year i am interested in Maria’s Marathon training; I would pay for fitness test if it goes ahead. Thanks.23rd July 2014 at 12:59 pm #1977NiamhTuckerParticipantHi Tadhg,
I think i would be up for this! 🙂
At least to start the training and see how I get on!!
