I wish to congratulate Ray and all the team on the organisation of such a wonderful event. I enjoyed the marathon very much. Thanks a million. It was the most beautiful race I have ever run in my life. The landscape and the weather were so nice !!!!
I had a very slow run due to a pre race illness but didn't mind as it gave me an excuse to have even more time on the lovely course and to chat to some of my fellow participants along the way. will have to come back next year to bury the demons!
Well done Ray! Absolutely fantastic event, nothing like it in the world! You really deserve so much credit. We all really enjoyed it, I loved every minute from start to finish, and usually I hate running in the sun.

Course Record Bonuses on offer for RONHILL Connemara Full and Ultra Marathons.

Tue, 10/11/2009

The 2010 RONHILL Connemara Marathon and Ultra Marathon promise to be very exciting events as a 1,000 Euro Course Record Bonus will be on offer to the winner for both the men's and women's races... an incentive to get 'round even quicker!

Of particular interest will be the Men's Ultra Marathon record which is currently held by UK's Denis Walmsley who covered the 39.3 mile course in a blistering 4 hours 10 minutes and 38 seconds back in 2005. In doing so he posted very impressive half marathon splits of 1:20, 1:25, 1:25... or to put is another way, Denis ran a 2:45 marathon and followed up with a 1:25 half marathon as a cool down! Interestingly Denis is the current World Masters Marathon V45 Champion. Helena Crossin's 4 hour 40 minute Ultra record will be very tough to beat also.

The Connemarathon Records for Full and Ultra are
Men's Ultra Marathon Record, Denis Walmsley, UK 4:10:38 run in 2005
Women's Ultra Marathon Record, Helena Crossin, Ireland 4:40:12 run in 2008
Men's Full Marathon Record, Isaac Kimuge, Kenya, 2:30:55 run in 2003
Women's Full Marathon Record, Josephine Kiprop, Kenya, 3:01:06 run in 2005

There is also a first prize of 500euro in all six races.
