Day 1 - Walking Around Ireland | From Dublin to the Wicklow Way
I am hiking from Dublin to the Great Blasket Islands in Co. Kerry. I will be sleeping in a tent and it will take approx 30 days to complete the 600km+ journey. Most of this trail is known as “Coast to Coast” but I have always had a fascination and urge to pitch my tent on the Great Blasket Island which is why I will head north upon reaching Killarney.
And in case you might be asking yourself, I am walking to the Great Blasket Islands because I really enjoy walking.

Day 6 - Walking Ireland | The Wicklow Way | From Laragh to Mucklagh Hut
Thank you for following my walk around Ireland. After climbing up out of the valley, I passed through Glenmalure and made my way back up into the mountains. It’s been a stunning trip walking the Wicklow Way and such a wild start to my journey around Ireland.

Most of this trail is known as “Coast to Coast” but I have always had a fascination and urge to pitch my tent on the Great Blasket Island which is why I will head north upon reaching Killarney.

The Wicklow Way, Maurice Mullans Ultra - Vlog 36
We travelled to Wicklow for my first ultra of 2018, the Maurice Mullan's Ultra. Formerly known as the Wicklow Way Ultra, before it was renamed in honour of its creator, Maurice.
I treated this as a training race for Ronda dels Cims (Andorra Ultra Trail), which I have as one of my 'A' races for the year. The second being UTMB. The plan was to race this 51k, then next month the Transylvania 100k, then Ronda del Cims at the start of July.
I last entered this race in 2014 and at that time it was my very first ultra! I clocked 6 hours 12 minutes back then, so I was very happy to stop the clock after 5 hours and 30 minutes this year.
Here's the activity on Strava and also the event page, which is run by the Irish Mountain Running Association (IMRA).
