This is a photograph from the fourth annual running of the "Mullingar 10" - a 10 mile road race and fun run which was held in Dalystown, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday July 17th 2017 at 11:00. The race was organised by Mullingar Harriers who promoted the event. There was almost 280 participants in the event. The race follows a simple 'figure of 8' route. The race starts from Dalystown National School and heads north briefly to Dalystown cross-roads where there is a left turn which brings runners along the L1122 road. The only real cross-over of the route is at the 2.5 and 7.5 mile mark. The race completes a loop between 2.5 and the 7.5 mile mark which brings runners into the locality of Ballinagore. The final 2.5 miles of the race brings runners back through Cloneheigue and the final 1.5 miles of the race is along straight road heading north back to Dalystown and the finish outside of Wallace's Pub which is just off the N52 road.
The course was a mixture of long straight level sections of road with some short rolling hills which made for a challenging but an overall fair course. The race took place is warm temperatures with a strong southerly breeze in the face of runners for stretches along the route. However some beautiful mature hedgerows along the mostly rural roads provided shade and shelter from the sun for runners. This race has actually had excellent weather for its first four years with some runners saying that temperatures may have even been a bit too high for distance running.
This was the fourth year of the event it has become an annual fixture on the calendar. The running calendar today shows a marked shortage of races at the 10 mile distance and this was one of the original reasons this distance was chosen for this race. Clubs from all over the North Leinster region and beyond were represented today. Refreshments were provided outside Wallace's Pub at the Finish line. Well done to Mullingar Harriers and all the many volunteers who helped make today's race a wonderful success.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

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!

This is a photograph from the second running of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon ("The Flatline") was held at Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 14th September 2013 at 11:00. There was beautiful weather for the event which started and finished at St. Aloysius College near the Canal Banks area of the town just slightly west of the River Shannon. This event was professionally organised and the very flat course meant that many runners both seasoned and new to the scene achieved season or personal bests. Almost 1,000 participants successfully completed the event in the beautiful September sunshine. Everyone involved must be congratulated for the flawless running of the event. This event is sure to go from strength to strength over the coming years. The "Flatline" also included an option for a full marathon which was fully supported by the Marathon Club of Ireland and the East of Ireland Marathon Series. This allowed participants to run the Flatline twice for the qualifying marathon distance. About 80 people took part.
This is a photograph which is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the start and finish of "The Flatline" 2013. The URL of the main set is www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157635495089498/. There are some photographs of the finishers of the marathon.

Overall Race Summary
Participants: Such is the popularity of the race this year that registration closed for the race in mid-August 2013. There were well over 1,000 participants who took to the start line.
Weather: The weather on the day was almost perfect for running. The runners were bathed in warm September sunshine for the duration of the race and into the early afternoon. In the sections of the race out towards Clonown and around the Bord na Mona areas there was a stiff breeze but nothing major.
Course: "The Flatline" ceratinly lived up to its name. It is as flat a course as one is likely to find. A garmin connect gps trace of the route is provided here [connect.garmin.com/activity/199678412] Geographically the course spends much of the race in County Roscommon with only the first and last kilometers actually in County Westmeath. This gives geographically inclined runners the novel opportunity to race in two Irish provinces in one race. The course had distance markers at every kilometre and mile along the way. There were official pacers provided by the race organisers.
Location Map: Start/finish area and registration etc on Google StreetView [goo.gl/maps/8qCes] - Ample parking was supplied with some over-flow car-parking options also available.
Refreshments: An Alkohol Frei bottle of Erdinger was provided to every finisher as they crossed the line. Light refreshments were served.

This is a photograph from the Kinnegad 5KM Road Race, Fun Run, and Walk held in Kinnegad, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 10th July 2013 at 20:00. The race is organised by Coralstown/Kinnegad GAA Club who also provide the facilities for Race HQ, parking, and after-race refreshments. This is the 5th running of this race and each year it has got better and better. The race is held on a fast and relatively flat course which provides opportunities for fast times and personal bests for all participants. The beautiful weather seen a large crowd gather on the mainstreet to cheer on finishers whilst locals also watched from their houses as the race passed. A wonderful atmosphere and a credit to the local community. Coralstown Kinnegad GAA club were the main organisers of the event. As mentioned above this is a fast flat course. The course is right handed. The course starts on the old N4 Sligo Road (goo.gl/maps/JWpnK) outside of SuperValue Kinnegad. Just before the 1KM mark the race turns right onto the Killucan road. There is a downhill stretch at the 1km mark where 500m later the course takes a right turn onto Boreen Bradach (a well known local walking route). The race stays with the boreen, which has a very good road surface, until about 800 meters to go where the race emerges into a housing estate. The boreen, which has grass growing up the middle in places, is very well sheltered from the elements and tonight it provided a nice cool shaded environment for participants. The final right turn is onto the main street for the finish (goo.gl/maps/es2Up) outside the newly re-opened Harrys of Kinnegad. A great spread of refreshments, served outdoors, were provided in the club house afterwards followed by the prize giving ceremony.
Location Map: Start/finish areas on Google StreetView and Google Aerial provided above and below on this description. Kinnegad is very accessible on the motorway and national road network of Ireland positioned at the intersection of the M4/N4/M6/N6 roads.

Passengers getting off the bus in Kaikoura to go to have their refreshments before continue onto Picton
Another "people" photo. People are the most interesting photographic subjects and I'd take nothing else if I could; the trouble is that I can't, being too diffident to approach potential subjects and lacking the brass neck to aim a camera uninvited. So this is about the best I can manage, a "candid" taken at the refreshment facilities of the University of Cambridge's Botanic Garden. The camera was resting on the table. I aimed it approximately, focused on 20ft (I imagine FLF-lengths, 30ft, as my units of measurement), looked the other way and pressed the shutter-release button. I had intended to photograph the elderly party sitting at the table; the woman entering right, seen from low down, was a lucky accident.
Nice class of person here ...indeed there are no nicer people than the kind who go to botanic gardens. Mostly getting on in years, but with an encouragingly large minority of the young. The refreshment halt was the result of Mrs B's infuriating "let's stop for coffee" habit. Eschewing the onion and chive kettle chips ...i.e. gentrified crisps... I settled for a miniscule bottle of the only beer available, Kronenbourg 1664. At least they offered me a glass, these days apparently considered optional.
