Sometimes we need to look back eventhough we're living the life in the fast lane.

This is a photograph from the 6th annual running of the Meath Spring Half Marathon and 10KM Road Races and Fun Runs which were promoted and hosted by Bohermeen Athletic Club at Bohermeen, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 12th of March 2017 at 11:00. The half marathon consists of a 11KM and 10KM repeated loop around the roads of Bohermeen and Oristown. The 10KM race just completes the 2nd part of the half marathon. The finish line is on the running track within Bohermeen Community Center. The course is a fast fair course with a few small hills. Last year the course was 'reversed' which just meant that the traditional course changed to accomodate the large number of participants and the narrow country roads on which both the race participants and race traffic must both share before, during and after the race. Most runners agreed that this made the course much faster as a result. There was almost a total of 1,000 participants in both races.

The other great variable in road racing - the weather - was dry, clear but rather windy. At several parts of the course there was a stiff headwind which made these sections that bit more difficult. Temperatures were around a seasonal 10C for this time in March in Ireland.

 

Bohermeen AC is steeped in Irish athletics history since 1927 and it is this experience and exceptional community spirit and volunteering which has made this event today so successful. Having now organised the event for six years running it is certain that the event will continue to grow and expand become one of the mainstays on the Irish athletic club road racing calendar for many years to come.

This race takes place about one month after the Bewley's 10 Mile Road Race in Trim (just down the road from Bohermeen). Indeed these races truly kick-start the whole road racing season of fixtures amongst the clubs in Meath who are now famous for the quality and standard of the road races staged and organised.

The race is supported by substantial local sponsorship from businesses in the local area. McNally Logistics and Transportation are the main sponsors of this year's event. The company specialises in national and international haulage.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs

We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?

The explaination is very simple.

Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.

ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.

 

Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/

 

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!

Nikon F2, Porta 400

The 2009 movie "Fast & Furious" (top), also known as "Fast and Furious 4", was shot in the Los Angeles area.

This part of the race took place in San Pedro.

For Tony.

The camera is 15mm (actually more like 18mm) focal length f60. I use a padded back to press the film forward onto the light chamber to obtain the short focal length. The shutter is from an Ilford Sporti and has a flash contact so the camera can do flash macro pinhole shots.

Garmisch-Partenkirchen, in einem Talkessel am Zusammenfluss von Loisach (aus Tirol) und Partnach (aus dem Wettersteingebirge) ist Ziel für fast jeden Oberbayern-Besucher. Das führt leider dazu, dass das bayerische Klischee wie nirgendwo sonst mit Kitschläden so ausgereizt wird wie hier. Der Markt hat aber mehr zu bieten: Bergkulisse, historisches Ortsbild, olympische Sportstätten, Kultur und Kunstschätze. Partenkirchen geht auf eine römische Station an der Via Claudia zurück und war später Handelsort. Garmisch wurde 802 erstmals als Siedlung erwähnt.

 

Als 1889 die Eisenbahn-Linie aus München fertiggestellt war, rollte der Tourismus an. Im Vorfeld der Olympischen Winterspiele setzten die Nazis 1935 die »Zwangs-Ehe« zu Garmisch-Partenkirchen durch. Noch heute gibt es eine ausgeprägte Rivalität zwischen beiden Ortsteilen.

 

Ein Stadtrundgang beginnt meiste am Marienplatz. Im Haus Nr. 10 ist die Apotheke von 1790 eingerichtet. Die Pfarrkirche St. Martin wurde 1734 im Rokoko-Stil erbaut und ist wegen der Deckenfesken von Matthäus Günther einen Besuch wert. Von hier aus gelangt man zur Frühlingsstraße mit ihren alten Holzhäusern.

 

Durch den 35.000 qm großen Michael-Ende-Kurpark, der an den in Garmisch geborenen Literaten erinnert und in dem es im Sommer Kur-Konzerte gibt, gelangt man zur Spielbank.

 

Am Rathaus vorbei gelangt man nun in den Ortsteil Partenkirchen und auf die Flaniermeile Ludwigstraße. Der historische Teil dieser Straße ist das Schmuckstück des Ortes. Hier führte die Via Claudia entlang, eine mittelalterliche Handelsstraße von Murnau nach Mittenwald. Sehenswert sind die prächtigen Häuser und Gasthöfe mit ihren Fassadenmalereien.

 

Wie ein Fels in der Brandung ruht die Kapelle St. Sebastian am Eingang der Ludwigstraße. Sie wurde 1637 geweiht und hat einen kleinen Pestfriedhof.

 

Etwas außerhalb, Richtung Mittenwald, steht das Olympia-Ski-Stadion von 1936 mit der nagelneuen Sprungschanze. Die 14 Mio. teure Sprungschanze kann besichtigt werden. Auf den 62 m hohen Turm kommt man bequem mit dem Aufzug oder man steigt die 332 Stufen der »Himmelsleiter« hoch. Von hier oben hat man einen tollen Blick ins Loisachtal.

 

Sehenswert ist auch die Partnachklamm. Sie wurde schon 1912 zum Naturdenkmal erklärt. Zwei Wege gibt es durch die Klamm: über eine eiserne Brücke in 70 m Höhe oder direkt am Wasser entlang. Die Schlucht ist 25 Min. Fußweg vom Ski-Stadion entfernt.

After our Bus tour of the Port of Miami, we visited the Flagler Global Logistics Center Near NW Rosedale Drive and NW 67th Street, Hialeah, Miami, Florida. They Basically Flash Freeze and Fumigate Imported Produce. If I remember correctly, they said the temperature inside was near Minus 40 Degrees Fahrenheit. I believe that they Freeze the Produce with Liquid Nitrogen.

 

This Logistics Center was very hard to find on the Map, but it's quite close to the Florida East Coast Railway's Hialeah Railroad Yard Balloon Track. The address is: 3200 NW 67th Ave. Bld 1, Suite 1, Miami FL.

A Crown gas station and Fast Fare convenience store in Hayes, VA, on 2347 George Washingon Memorial Highway, in the York River Crossing shopping center. This store opened in 1999, and became a Texaco/Corner Mart in 2006, and Shell in summer 2010.

The 2009 movie "Fast & Furious", also known as "Fast and Furious 4", was shot in the Los Angeles area.

The location used as the FBI building is in the city of Pasadena.

went up to watch the end of the smithfield nocturne, when i was there is wished that i bought my D5 but because i am working in london to 3 days so did not want have to lug it around with me. i was going to use me lomo + color splash flash but the flash decided to die on me! i borrowed rock cakes canon power shot G7. its a good little camera but takes a little while to focus with is not a problem but i could not find a way turn off the auto focus. because of this a lot of my shots came with no cyclists in them at all

 

it is said i good trades man never blames his tools but is ok to blame some one else's?

September 23rd, 2018

Taken on a trip to the Farne Isles. I had some great company in the shape of Mike my bro ( Spike ) and Col (Apatureman) and also Dave phillips of Hartlepool Camera club, was a beautiful day I got sunburned, like a clown I didn't use any sunscreen. I didn't want to bore folks to death with the 700 images I shot, so I picked half a dozen of the ones I liked best

Photograph taken in 2019.
