WAR Glenmalure obstacle course
28th of July 2012
This WAR is a treat for cycle enthusiasts. It combines two of the most iconic cycles in Wicklow Shay Elliott and Slieve Mann. Couple this with two spectacular runs Djouce Mountain and Croaghanmoira and finish up with a dip in a river and a muddy obstacle course; and you are bound to feel great about yourself, well maybe not straight away!
The full WAR course involves 59km over 5 stages and the WAR-Sport 30km over 3 stages.![]()
