MonsterMAC will be included in the 2012 National Adventure Race Points Series for both BigMAC SPORT and MonsterMAC EXPERT courses. This Series consists of 10 SPORT and 10 EXPERT level races including the well established favourites like the WAR Series, the ROARs and Gaelforce events so MonsterMAC is in good company again in 2012.
The route follows parts of the scenic Cork/Kerry Duhallow Way, giving you the opportunity to be part of this fun, well designed, often challenging, sometimes gruelling, but never boring course. The MonsterMAC EXPERT category incorporates a steep offroad run to a high point of 644m on the peak of Mushra More offering superb views of the surrounding countryside. With bike routes weaving along narrow country roads through some of Ireland’s most unspoilt countryside, this challenge will start and finish at the foothills of Munster’s Boggeragh Mountains in the unique Millstreet Country Park.
Dash or Dunk to finish? So will you opt to do the short dash to the finish line or maybe you will be one of the more adventurous who take the shortcut splash to finish at the Crannog lake……………… within this unique 500 acre parkland.
