Crucially, they must complete all this in under 24 hours. It is aimed at providing the ultimate 24 hour test of endurance.<\/p>\n<p>North West Donegal has been chosen for The Race 2017 as it provides the perfect blend of beauty and more importantly, difficulty. The Race is held in early March to increase the chances of challenging weather conditions during the event. It is the toughest of courses at the toughest of times. In many cases it is how an athlete deals with the wind, rain or snow that will determine if they have what it takes to finish.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"\" class=\"x-container max width\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; \" ><div  class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-1\" style=\"padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px; \" ><div id=\"\" class=\"x-text\" style=\"\" ><p>There is no typical competitor. Competitors come from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines. You do not need to be an elite runner, cyclist or kayaker. Those who compete in and complete The Race will be those who refuse to give up.<\/p>\n<p>The focus of the The Race will be on the quality of experience rather than quantity of participants. The field will be limited to 150 participants to protect the local environment which includes Glenveagh National Park. The intention is not to exclude but rather to create an experience that will be one of the toughest but also most memorable of a competitor&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<\/div><div  class=\"x-entry-share\" ><p>Share this event<\/p><div class=\"x-share-options\"><a href=\"#share\" data-x-element=\"extra\" data-x-params=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;tooltip&quot;,&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;hover&quot;,&quot;placement&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" class=\"x-share\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F2834&amp;t=The+Race+2017', 'popupFacebook', 'width=650, height=270, resizable=0, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=0, location=0, scrollbars=0'); return false;\"><i class=\"x-icon-facebook-square\" data-x-icon-b=\"&#xf082;\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#share\" data-x-element=\"extra\" data-x-params=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;tooltip&quot;,&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;hover&quot;,&quot;placement&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" class=\"x-share\" title=\"Share on X\" onclick=\"window.open('https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=The+Race+2017&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F2834', 'popupTwitter', 'width=500, height=370, resizable=0, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=0, location=0, scrollbars=0'); return false;\"><i class=\"x-icon-twitter-square\" data-x-icon-b=\"&#xe61a;\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#share\" data-x-element=\"extra\" data-x-params=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;tooltip&quot;,&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;hover&quot;,&quot;placement&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" class=\"x-share\" title=\"Share on LinkedIn\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F2834&amp;title=The+Race+2017&amp;summary=Join+some+of+the+world%27s+top+athletes+for+Ireland%27s+toughest+24-hour+endurance+event.+&amp;source=Self+Help+Africa', 'popupLinkedIn', 'width=610, height=480, resizable=0, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=0, location=0, scrollbars=0'); return false;\"><i class=\"x-icon-linkedin-square\" data-x-icon-b=\"&#xf08c;\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#share\" data-x-element=\"extra\" data-x-params=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;tooltip&quot;,&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;hover&quot;,&quot;placement&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" class=\"x-share\" title=\"Share on Pinterest\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F2834&amp;media=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2Fsites%2F4%2F2015%2F09%2FThe-Race-Featured-Image.jpg&amp;description=The+Race+2017', 'popupPinterest', 'width=750, height=265, resizable=0, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=0, location=0, scrollbars=0'); return false;\"><i class=\"x-icon-pinterest-square\" data-x-icon-b=\"&#xf0d3;\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"#share\" data-x-element=\"extra\" data-x-params=\"{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;tooltip&quot;,&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;hover&quot;,&quot;placement&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" class=\"x-share\" title=\"Share on Reddit\" onclick=\"window.open('http:\/\/www.reddit.com\/submit?url=https%3A%2F%2Fselfhelpafrica.org%2Fie%2Fwp-json%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fposts%2F2834', 'popupReddit', 'width=875, height=450, resizable=0, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=0, location=0, scrollbars=0'); return false;\"><i class=\"x-icon-reddit-square\" data-x-icon-b=\"&#xf1a2;\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"mailto:?subject=The+Race+2017&amp;body=Hey, thought you might enjoy this!
