Such an honor to watch these guys run about. They were running and weaving about. It was truly amazing to witness such an event.
This is a photograph from the fifth running of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon which was held at Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 10th September 2016 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. Over 900 participants successfully completed the event in the beautiful September sunshine. Everyone involved must be congratulated for the flawless running of the event. No stone was left unturned in the organisation of the race. The flat course brings runners into both Connaught and Leinster as the route takes runners on a flat rural country route for 8 miles before joining the old N6 Dublin Galway road. After a mile or so the race turns back onto country roads towards the finish.

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

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.

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!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
I would have wanted this sharper and more focused but had to take this in the spur of the moment. You know how people suddenly run just to not miss the green light. Gave the
photo some treatment with LR and PS CS3 and a dash of Film Grain...
Good to have the BMMO S21 (5870, LHA870F) moving under her own power again, albeit briefly as part of a move around at AMRTM. It would be lovely to get the brakes reassembled and see this rarity back on the road.
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.
Timing and event management was provided by http://www.myrunresults.com/. Their website is here [www.myrunresults.com/] and will contain the results to today's race.

Running around the Plaza de Armas with the local cuzqueños. If you're ever in Cusco, spend a full morning or afternoon really soaking in the vibe of the plaza. It's bursting with life, and it's not just a tourist gathering place -- you'll just as easily find locals relaxing on benches reading the paper or jostling to their next destination in town.
This is a photograph from the first loop of the town, after the start, in the 17th Longford Marathon, Half Marathon, Ultra, Relay and 5KM events which were held in Longford Town, Co. Longford, Ireland on Sunday 19th of August 2018 from 10:00 onwards. The event is tagged as 'the friendly marathon in the heart of Ireland' with Longford town full embracing the influx of runners from far and wide for marathon day. All races start and finish on Longford main street (close to the Longford Arms Hotel) and follow various routes west of Longford town itself. The marathon takes in three counties (Longford, Roscommon and Leitrim) and two provinces (Connaught and Leinster). The marathon and ultra marathon also cross the mighty River Shannon. The logistical management of the event is considerable and is undertaken with professional precision to accommodate the needs and demands of so many different races converging on the same area from different routes. The weather today was dull and overcast but very mild and humid which is not always best for distance running. However the course had plenty of water stops with ample provisions for everyone.
Our full set of photographs from the event today (mostly focusing on the marathon and half marathon) are available on Flickr at this set URL www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157694556206940
This is a photograph from the 8th annual running of the Meath Spring Half Marathon which was promoted and hosted by Bohermeen Athletic Club at Bohermeen, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 10th of March 2019 at 11:00. The half marathon consists of a 11KM and 10KM repeated loop around the roads of Bohermeen and Oristown. The finish line is on the running track within Bohermeen Community Center. The course is a fast fair course with a few small hills. In 2016 the original 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. The major change for 2019 seen the half marathon become the only race of the day. Previously, there was a 10KM race option also presented. This year the race promoters offered 999 places and the race sold out many weeks in advance. The race also includes the 46th Rennicks Cup (Men's overall team) and the 43rd Father Delany Cup (Women's overall team).
The weather will be remembered for a long time after this year. Just about 15 minutes before the start there was a very heavy hailstorm which seemed to make the winds even stronger. Suddenly the skies cleared and the sun appeared. However, a very strong westerly wind contined and this was in the face of runners on the open stretches on the Navan Athboy road and on the additional section on Loop 1.
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.

The photo is grainy and the light was poor but this is a photo of the running order pinned to the wall of Sandy Lane Garage, Coventry on its last day of operation, 25 October 1986. Some of the letters look smudgy but I’ve spent a bit of time with this and there are a few interesting points:
As was common by this time, the Fleetlines were not working much after 6pm
Ex Coventry Fleetline 1135 (PDU135M) and similar 44xx East Lancs Fleetlines were not working and had finished their service life with the PTE the previous day in most cases.
Some of the 6582-6591 Fleetlines operated from this depot where they had already displaced GOG Metrobuses in a swap with Liverpool St Garage in Birmingham. In keeping with Sandy Lane policy, these were odd numbered specimens.
The last vehicle back to garage looks to have been 2615 according to the schedule (a bit of squinting and enlarging but I'm 90%)but whether this was back to Sandy Lane or not I don’t know. I seem to recall the staff saying that they would leave Sandy Lane in the morning and go to Wheatley Street after they came off service.
The Metrobuses which went in exchange for the Park Royal Fleetlines were 2105-10/95-99 and Coventry also received 6635-37 from Liverpool Street but these did not enter service before deregulation as far as I know.
This little cownose ray was feeding on Coquina in the shallows and was left high and dry by an outgoing wave. It sputtered and flapped, but seemed to be making its way in the wrong direction! I picked it up after a few photos and tossed it back into the water, where it was again gliding by with its dozens of friends, in search of an easy meal.
