2018-12-29 13:00 - 17:00 | Ardagh, County Longford
Our annual Ardagh 10 Mile Challenge takes place on a scenic, point-to-point course during the peak of Winter. The first two miles of the course brings you on the scenic route around the village before you head up over the mountain, the last half mile has you once again running through the historic and award winning village of Ardagh to finish at the village green.
The 10 mile start line is located at one corner of the village green. https://www.google.com/maps/@53.6670639,-7.6940153,3a,75y,90h,90t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s-XWhw1Ji-FpVI_ZOt810ew!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
Race Route
Travels up through the village past St Brigid’s church before turning around a traffic bollard at about 1 km and coming back through the village. The route then heads from the village towards the famous Ardagh Mountain (Don’t panic, it’s only a small mountail) at about 2 mile. The climb lasts for about 1200m and is quite steep in parts so gauge your effort. After a nice down-hill section the course is quite flat with a few long inclines up to the finish.

Liquid Motion Duathlon
2019-02-24 12:00 - 17:00 | Enniscrone, Sligo, Enniscrone, Sligo, Ireland
Liquid Motion Duathlon is taking place on the 24th of February and is the 4th race in the Ireland West Duathlon series.
The event is suitable for all abilities and the route is generally flat with some short hills. The race takes place in the seaside village of Enniscrone and takes in the beautiful beach and coast line of the surrounding areas.
The first run starts at the pier where transition is staged and follows the road down to the strand where competitors follow the markers to the turnaround. After returning on the same route to transition to collect your bike you will be marshaled out to a side road which joins the main Enniscrone to Easkey road. The bike is a very fast out and back 20km course, which follows the coast to the small village of Rathlee where you will meet the turn around point. The return route is the same road back and is mostly flat with one or two small hills when leaving Enniscrone. The 2nd run is a short 2.5km and is again flat and fast to burn what energy you have left. The course has some spectacular scenery and is not to be missed.
Prizes for the top 3 male and female, with some age categories thrown in for good measures.
**Please note a Triathlon Ireland Licence is not required for this event.
We want to wish all competitors the very best of luck and look forward to seeing you all on the day.
