Todd Jackson
I was surprised when Todd opened his front door on a cold January day—I was expecting an older man. Todd’s age hits home because among all of the Fortitude participants, he is closest in age to me. The location for the shoot that he chose was a novel one—the house he had just bought but hadn’t yet moved into. It was completely empty and without heat, which made for a very unique and creative (and cold) photo shoot. Todd is the director of Vanderbilt University Medical Center Annual Giving. Todd appears in Renovation.
My husband brought home these American Cancer Society daffodils last night. Silly me, I thought he brought them for me, but turns out he brought them home for my daughter. Well, it's still a nice gesture, and I still get to enjoy them too!

My cancers thought me that I can hold still for needles, but will
never be able to watch or get used to them. My cancers continue to teach me how wonderful my (now)husband is than in all the years I knew him before. My cancers have taught me how to be a caregiver and that
it is truly harder to be a caregiver than it is to be the patient.

This is a photograph from the 26th Anniversary running of the South O'Hanlon 5KM Road Race which was held at Seneschalstown G.A.A Club, Beauparc/Kentstown, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland on Wednesday 3rd July 2013 at 20:00. South O'Hanlon AC have again organised one of the best value races of it's kind in the country and maintain the very high standard set by other races in the Meath Road Racing Calendar. Congratulations are extended to all at South O'Hanlon, the local community, and other Meath athletics clubs, which made this another very successful night. The club provides prizes in a very wide range of categories and there was a very large spread of refreshments afterwards in the GAA clubhouse. The well known Seneschalstown G.A.A club provide the facilities for registration, showers, and after-race activities.
This route was first run in 2010 and hasn't changed since. The race starts about 1KM from the race HQ at the lovely setting of Beauparc Railway Crossing on the old Navan-Drogheda railway line (race start here goo.gl/maps/SVWWY). The race proceeds in an anti-clockwise left handed loop, following the L1600, and passing the GAA grounds before taking a left to Dollardstown, to Yellow Furze, and bringing runners back to the start area at Beauparc for the final kilometer of the race back to the finish.
Electronic Timing and Event Management were provided on the night by Precision Timing [www.precisiontiming.net/result/racetimer]

Overall Race Summary
Participants: Approximately 300 people took part in tonight's race with runners, joggers, walkers, and families involved.
Weather: A perfect summer's evening with temperatures around 18C. There was a little or no breeze out but this was mostly sheltered from runners around a beautiful country roads course.
Course: This is a fast course. The course is left handed and there are some drags around the 1km to 2.5KM part of the course. The final 1KM runs the same stretch of road as the first KM.
Location Map: Start/finish areaS on Google StreetView and Google Aerial [Start: goo.gl/maps/SVWWY Finish: goo.gl/maps/CSgcU]. The race is easily accessed from the North via Drogheda and other areas via Navan.
Refreshments: As is now the tradition and expectation with Meath Road Races the folks at South O'Hanlon put on a wonderful spread of refreshments for athletes and spectators after the race in the G.A.A club.

How can I get a full resolution copy of these photographs?
All of the photographs here on this Flickr set have a visible watermark embedded in them. All of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available offline, free, at no cost, at full image resolution WITHOUT watermark. We take these photographs as a hobby and as a contribution to the running community in Ireland. Our only "cost" is our request that if you are using these images: (1) on social media sites such as Facebook, Tumblr, Pinterest, Twitter,LinkedIn, Google+, etc or (2) other websites, web multimedia, commercial/promotional material that you provide a link back to our Flickr page to attribute us. This also extends the use of these images for Facebook profile pictures. In these cases please make a separate wall or blog post with a link to our Flickr page. If you do not know how this should be done for Facebook or other social media please email us and we will be happy to help suggest how to link to us.
Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember - all we ask is for you to link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. Taking the photographs and preparing them for online posting does take a significant effort. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons. If you really like what we do please spread the link around your social media, send us an email, leave a comment beside the photographs, send us a Flickr email, etc.

Many people offer payment for our photographs. As stated above we do not charge for these photographs. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the photograph(s) you request are good enough that you would consider paying for their purchase from other photographic providers we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
