Question 4

A: We advise against using them on safety grounds. Our race vehicles and ambulances must use the course, and must be able to alert participants of their presence.Q: WHAT IS THE LAYOUT OF THE COURSE:A: The course is set on one of the country's longest sandy beaches. The race does not move off the beach at any stage. The beach is 99% flat, solid sand but due to the nature of the sea there may be patches of gravel, softer sand & small stones, but the beach is so wide at low tide these will be easily avoidable. The beach is also intersected on occasion by small mountain streams, the size of which is weather dependent - footwear may get wet. Correct footwear is advised. The race will start & finish at Fahamore in the Maharees. Also note: please be aware that due to the size of the beach your course may end up being longer than the half marathon / 10k, 5k length, depending on the course you take.The route will be marked to correct lengths by easily identifiable flags, however, participants own discretion with regards to what area of the beach to use (i.e. avoiding stones / pools of water etc.) may result in slight variations in distances.Q: HOW WILL I IDENTIFY THE COURSE?

Accepted Answer

***PLEASE READ CAREFULLY***A: The route will be clearly marked by easily identifiable red flags and km markers .To keep distances accurate, please run on the sand dune side of the flags at all times (i.e. flags on your right going out, and flags on your left coming back). This will prevent any discrepancies in finishing times & distances that may occur by running a shorter route near the water as the beach is curved, so running closer to the seas = a shorter run!Q: WHAT IS IT LIKE RUNNING ON A BEACH?
