Such a great boutique event. I was looking for a challenge & then Townsville 3in3 days popped up & that was it! Karin & Tim ran a great event. These are no frills events for the purists. Holding this event allowed me to achieve my greatest sporting accomplishment to date! Thanks guys!
IRE attracts some of the most experienced marathon runners in the world to their events. I've completed two 10in10 marathon events which were extremely challenging, but a life-changing experience for me. The highlights have always been the camaraderie, local community support & a selfless team of dedicated & friendly volunteers. IRE offers the most unique multiday events, which I would recommend to anyone who is up for a challenge.
I've completed two marathons with IRE and have enjoyed the wonderful atmosphere & encouraging energy of everyone involved. Karin & Tim have created a well-organised & rewarding event. I'm looking forward to completing many more runs with them in the future.
