Gordon says,
This is a tester to say the least. Ballygrennan hill to start. We will all take on the hill and do our stretching at the top just to make sure all get up ok.
Out the gates and take a left for the Tralee road. Go over the bridge and go straight onto the Abbeyfeale road. Take the first right which is directly ahead of you and so begins the Ballygrennan ascent!! Get to the top of Ballygrennan and stop! Wait for the rest of your Crusaders. We will do our stretches at the summit. After stretching carry on down that road until you meet a T Junction. Take a right turn. Keep going straight until you meet the main road. The road has a hairpin to the right in it. Take the hairpin and go to the right. Carry on down this main road until you hit the six crosses. MAIN BUSY ROAD BE CAREFUL!!! Cross the road which is the road behind the petrol station. Carry on up that road for a little over half a mile. Take the next right turn. Carry on down that road until you get to Finuge crossroads. Go through Finuge crossroads until you get to the Grotto which is also a T Junction. Take the right turn heading towards Listowel. Carry on down that road until you meet the waterworks which will also be the next left turn. Take the left turn. Carry on up that road until you meet the right turn before the humpback bridge. Take the right turn on to the Bog road. Carry on down this road until you meet the Ballybunion crossroads. At the crossroads go right. Carry on in the Listowel road until you get to the John B Keane road. Go left up the John B Keane road until you get to the Cleiveragh roundabout (the cinema) Take the right turn at the roundabout and come straight down the town to base. Do not go around the one way system. BOOM!!! 14 miles!
