I went on this run last time. Great run with no hassle, but it really shoulddepart earlier than 1pm (or 1-45 pmas it will probably be).

Matt, yes it's an overnighter. I think the run back is marshalled as well (it was last year).

Without going into too much detail, what about accomodation? Is it first come, first served, pre-booked, or do we find it ourselves?

I don't think it's pre-booked. It doesn't matter, almost every 2nd house in Galway is a B&B, especially just outside the town. Galway and Killarney have the most accomodation of any towns in the country.You never have problems getting B&B in Galway.
