For those in the UK into in-person racing, you may like to know about this event being held next year as there seem to be so few about these days. Its on Faceborg apparently.

Oh b****r. How did they manage to choose the same day as Hamburg ergo half-marathon. Not sure which is the easiest to travel to - but hey ho, (having tried to figure out how I can get to Limerick and back for the Irish in November and not leave mum for more than 1 night I havent done any other planning yet).

You'd need to fly to Shannon Airport (SNN), that's just down the road (25.2Km) from Limerick.
