An Taoiseach, Micheál Martin’s visit to Kilcoolys last night stirred up lots of memories of the last sitting Taoiseach that stayed over. It was surprising how many still recalled Eamonn de Valera’s stayover many decades ago. John & I were delighted to host the current Taoiseach last night.

Hi Ladies & Gents

We`re allegedly fixated on the weather in Ireland but we`ve been taking this to new levels the past 24 hours.

As we said last evening, we have been and will continue to monitor the weather forecast.
We would like to re-iterate that our primary concern is for the safety of all participants in the event. While the worst of the weather will be in the West & North West there is a weather warning in place from 1.00pm for Ballybunion.

For this reason the adults races which were scheduled to start at 1.00pm will be brought forward to 10.00am.

We believe this is a better alternative than postponing the event entirely.

The Kids Fun Run has traditionally been held 1 hour before the adults so that the children can feel part of the week-end. Unfortunately it is not practicable to hold this at 9.00am so we have reluctantly decided to postpone this years Kids Fun Run.

We wholeheartedly regret any inconvenience these changes will cause

We will be available at Kilcooly`s (V31DR60) this evening, Friday from 5.00pm and tomorrow, Saturday, morning from 8.30am for the collection of T shirts and Timing chips.

Please come back to Kilcooly`s directly after the race for complimentary hot food and snacks. We anticipate it will be well deserved

Sincerely
John, Joan & all the team at RunBallybunion
