key information for tuesday sessions


  • Access to the track will be via the main Irishtown Stadium reception.
 
  • Athletes must check in with our safety co-ordinators who will be located on the far side of the reception. Please follow their instructions. 

  • All athletes will do the same assigned session, depending on which group they are in (eg. marathon, middle distance or the main training group)
​
  • Overtaking: every effort will be made to ensure that you are placed in a suitable lane to avoid too much overtaking. However, if overtaking, please check around you to ensure that you do not interfere with any other athlete. Ensure you can pass while maintaining distance - this might mean waiting for a break in another lane.
