Hi...I'm doing the half marathon in Connemara for the 1st time this April and I was wondering if anyone knows a good place on Dublin Northside to train for Connemarathon where you could incorporate some hills into the route to help prepare for the course? Thanks! Running pitch laps in the slush at the moment (-:

Best thing is to run to the Phoenix Park and try some of the hills around the magazine fort, afetr you do that for a while it will certainly build a bit of strength in the legs

 Howth is the best training for the hell of the west - the final hill that stretches out n the Connemarathon! If you can run Howth you can survive any hills thrown at you!! Good luck!
