THINK YOU'RE TOUGH ENOUGH ?

The course begins with a 3.5km climb from Lahardane village to the foot of Nephin mountain , an ascent from Carrowskeheen and descent down by Cloughbrack followed by a 6.5km road run back to the village.

The record for 2018 was set by David Sands at a very impressive 1 hr 23m 13 s.  Ladies record was set by Deirdre Galvin at 1 hr 39m 09s.   Very windy conditions were challenging in 2019.
