Its a one night Run but there is some brilliant scenery and places to visit in West Cork so it would be worthwhile to take in the run and do some sightseeing as well .

Thanks a million Alex and Alvin and everybody for a brilliant run through west cork and kerry. The BBQ was great, thanks to the chefs, Ger and Alex. The car needs to be washed again later, but thats ok because everyone had a great night/morning.

It certainly was an interesting run , the look on the guys face at the top of Borlin at 2.30am with Minis everywhere and the table out for a coffee stop was worth anything , the run up the Healy pass was also memorable , but the star of the show must be Alex who went down to the site and got everything ready and was cooking by the time we arrived at 4.30am thanks to everyone that took part and to those that provided food and indeed logistical help -thanks for the van Pete and Greg there was so much gear that the van was full .
