The opening section of the race is a run/walk around Sean Walsh Park, and this offers spectators the best chance of seeing the competitors in action from the footpaths at Whitestown.

After returning to Tallaght Stadium the next stage is the cycle, and this will affect roads in Kiltipper, Bohernabreena, Ballinascorney and Glenasmole.

Whilst most of the route is on active roadway, the roads in the rural area are extremely narrow and won’t facilitate spectators. There is no parking opportunities.

Once the first cycle is complete competitors will kayak across the Bohernbreena Reservoir and then run/walk down Kippure Mountain to the second cycling stage.

This will result in a portion of Whitestown Way and the Piperstown Road being closed.

Motorists are asked to be aware of diversions in place throughout the day.
