a substantial amount are still volunteers.
So when you're going to a championships, you know, a start line, you know, you could be lined up against someone who has a full time team behind them.
You know, whereas when I was there, I was standing on the line thinking, okay, well, like my coach is a volunteer.
He's got a job in a bank.
Big difference.
Right.
So funding.
So again, you can look at facilities.
Yes, we would love more tracks.
You know, every county should have a few tracks.
How many, how are we liking that?
Well, put it this way, in like Dun Laoghaire right down.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's where I'm living.
The track that we had was in UCD and that closed about, I don't know,
2010 or something was it even yeah and even before that it was kind of changed across so you couldn't access it so that was in the whole county of DLR so you think of the size of that okay only what two years ago Dundrun said Dublin built a track it's a private track UCD then put a track the same year it's about two years ago and we have our first public track in Kilgobbett Park in Carpentie and that opened maybe a year ago so you think of that decade there was not one track that the public could just go and that the public could just use see if they liked it
Now, thankfully, things are going to change.
There is more tracks coming online in and around Dublin.
But I know Rob Heffernan spoke very passionately about this, that down the Cork, there's a serious lack of tracks.
