This is a photograph from the first running of the Kilbeggan 10 Mile Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Kilbeggan, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday August 4th 2013 at 12:00. The race was organised by Michael Murphy from Tullamore Harriers who is also race director of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon. All proceeds from the race went to the Niall Mellon Township Trust Charity.
All credit must go to Michael Murphy and his team for the staging of a very professionally organised road race. There were two waterstops, very good marshalling, accurate course measurement, and refreshments afterwards. This race has great potential to become a compliment and lead-up race to the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon and prepare runners for the Dublin Marathon.

Overall Race Summary
Participants: There was about 150 participants
Weather: This was a beautiful warm sunny summer's day. It was a little warm for road racing particularly with the midday sun directly over-head. There was some headwind at the begining of the race but this became negligible towards the final miles of the race.
Course: The race starts on the Moate Road in Kilbeggan at the junction of the Clara Road. This road will be familiar to many as the 'old N6 Galway road' which has now been replaced with the M6 motorway. The race proceeded straight into Horseleap village which runners took a left turn bringing the race onto country roads towards the village of Clara. Before Clara runners took another left turn which brought them on the final 2.75 miles straight back into the finish at Kilbeggan GAA grounds just yards from the race start. The course is a challenging course. While there are no big hills there are numerous smaller challenging inclines including a steep motorway bridge ascent at the 9 mile mark.

Refreshments: There was a very impressive selection of refreshments provided for participants in the village hall afterwards.

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
Working Downtown, you are constantly confronted with the Old and the New, sometimes within the same building, but it's that contrast that is the beauty of Pittsburgh. Despite the epic failure to save the Civic Arena, there are some shinning examples of presearved and reused buildings like the classic Union Trust Building, now part of the Bank of New York Mellon complex in Downtown Pittsburgh.

Water Rhymes is a weekly course designed to help you discover the joys and benefits of introducing your baby to water in a fun, yet structured way and learn key water confidence skills, using word association, games and exercises.
Where babies are concerned it is important to remember that they have no inherent fear of the water - after all they were surrounded by it for several months! Not only that, they also have a natural and instinctual ability to hold their breath when submerged. This course won't make your baby a swimmer but aims to build upon this ability by teaching babies not to panic if they should fall into water.
Most people agree that getting your baby used to water and starting baby swimming early on is one of the best starts you can give your baby. Whilst there are varying opinions about exactly when to start, babies are welcome at our Water Rhymes course from as early as a few months old.
By the end of this course your baby should have adapted to their surroundings and understand key word associations. Many of the parents that have attended previous classes have gone on to join structured swimming lessons for themselves and their babies.
Swimming with your baby builds confidence, trust and communication skills. Your baby will experience the positive health benefits of swimming such as improved stamina and breathing.
Have you ever trusted your intuitions? Sometimes trusting your intuitions can prove to be the right decision. A lot of people have shared their experiences of trusting their “sixth sense” which proved to be the right decision for them. A lady once reported that she had to go to out with her husband for the long weekend to some distant island. They had booked their tickets and were ready to leave. The lady said that she was feeling nauseous and she felt like something signed her not to go. It was her sixth sense or her intuitions that told her to stay but she did not herself believe in these signs. The next morning when she woke up she was feeling sick and therefore they canceled their plan. One of the lady’s friends suggested that he could go in their place with his wife and they all agreed. The next morning news arrived that the boat which was ferrying to the island drowned in the sea, the same boat which was carrying that couple.
268/365 Trust is a very delicate thing. Requires two beings. My son seemed to have earned Chipi's trust. He kept coming back all day. Both of them are very sweet.
St Swithins Square, a public park sited on the former site of the original St Swithins Church and cemetery, on Saltergate, Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
The original St Swithins Church was built in 1146. It was damaged by fire in either 1644 or 1646 and remained in ruins until 1718. It was later repaired but pulled down in 1801. Its bells went to Washingborough Church.
The second St Swithins Church was built in 1803 under a design by architect William Hayward. It was a small church situated in the north-east part of the present park. The building had an apse at the east end and a small bell-tower at the west end. The north stone wall of the cemetery remains. According to E Venables, the stone used to build the church was from the Western Exchequergate which had been demolished in 1800.
The cemetery was extended and consecrated 1828 after the purchase of a garden from Henry Bullen. 1851 a new 4 cwt bell by Mears of Whitechapel was added. New railings were added at the same time as the Vestry Hall was built, by James Fowler of Louth, but removed during WWII.
The church ceased being active in 1869 and removed in 1885. In 1954 the whole site was laid out by Lincoln Civic Trust as a public garden with gravestones used as paving and given to Lincoln City Council in 1956.
A beautiful morning at Westhay...bright, still and so peaceful. Apart from this handsome Marsh Harrier I also saw a flock of Bearded Tits, some Reed Buntings, Swans, Lapwings, Tufted Duck, Gadwalls and Shovellers, Linnets, Goldfinches, a Robin, Blackbirds, Redwing, Swans, Coots, Moorhens, Cormorants, Wagtails,Herons and a Great White Egret...not too shabby!

built 1910, Clinton Day, architect
Grant + Market, San Francisco
An elegant Beaux-Arts building was built in 1910 to house the Union Trust Company, California’s first successful trust institution, whose founder was San Francisco banker Isaias W. Hellman.
Trust companies offered extended bank services by acting as executors, trustees, and transfer agents. In 1923, Union Trust merged with Wells Fargo Nevada National Bank to form Wells Fargo Bank & Union Trust Company. Wells Fargo & Co., founded in 1852, was a dual business enterprise – a bank, and a nationwide express company that transported money and valuables, sold money orders and traveler’s checks, and transferred funds by telegraph to 10,000 locations across the United States. In 1905, the bank was split off from the express business, and it promptly began a series of mergers and takeovers that culminated in the 1990s and paid off in a big way – Wells Fargo is now one of the four largest banks in the United States.
Wells Fargo still occupies the beautiful Union Trust building today. The Union Trust Building was designed by architect Clinton Day (1846-1916), who was born in Brooklyn, N.Y., but moved to California with his family when he was eight. His father, Sherman Day, was a state senator and co-founder of the College of California (predecessor of the University of California at Berkeley). Clinton Day’s other projects included UC-Berkeley’s Chemistry Building, Stanford University’s Memorial Chapel, and the Union Life Building. He was a fellow of the American Institute of Architects.

I was walking through campus yesterday and here it sat- I have seen it before thinking that a Viper on Auraria Campus was rather odd- Thanks for flaunting Trust Fund Baby! I am sure it was probably a "cash for clunkers" trade in.

I followed the man who was having few strings of Chili and Lemon.
He hung one such string over the lock of an old shop and went ahead.
I just stood there looking at the contrast he has just created - An Iron lock symbolizing our rational believes and the lemon-chili string symbolizing the faith that protects us.
