This is a photograph from the annual BHAA Government Services/Social Protection Group's 5 Mile Road Race took place on Tuesday 27th May 2013 at 20:00 in Dunboyne, Co. Meath, Ireland. The course is a fast flat course which begins on the Dunboyne-Maynooth Road between the two entrances to Dunboyne Castle Estate. The race then proceeds in an anti-clockwise direction back to the Dunboyne Athletic Club on the Rooske Road in Dunboyne. The race reaches higher standards with every passing year. Paul Gorey and his team of volunteers must be given great credit for putting on such a wonderful race event. Thanks are also extended to Dunboyne Athletic Club, the BHAA, and the local community who all make this possible.
This photograph is part of a large set of photographs taken at the finish line area of the race. There are also some races of the buildup and the start of the race. The full set is available at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157644466844507/

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?

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.

This is a walk wedid on Bank Holiday Monday from Kirkdale to Liverpool but it has been uploaded the wrong way around! I had Erin in her pram (a bit unwell and a bit unhappy) and ended up walking from Kirkdale Station to Town because all the trains and buses were so full with people going to the Beatles Festival that we could not have got on any of them.The pram had a ton of stuff underneath it as we had stayed away overnight in Bootle so could not even try and flag a cab even. Oh the joys of being a pedestrian! Took some pics anyway.... (08

For Eric's birthday this year, we decided to stay in a hotel overnight in Wendover. On our way then, we decided to stop off at the Bonneville Salt Flats where we played around for a bit before heading to our hotel.

Keeping our mind of the weeks activities, we had a road trip.
Our third stop of our day out was a bar called Greasewood Flat, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
We were early in the day, but the place looks like it really gets busy in the evenings, and weekends. One place we will be going back to.
Its nice that he just requires the little strip on the side to do his flattening and leaves me some room to do my thing.
I decided to be European about this, after all, I *was* wearing Armani : ) I pushed the Bat a couple of blocks and let the very nice guys at Mojo Café do the work for me. I could change the tire, but why?
Here is my version of the flat demolition, it did take a while after 11am for them to come down and I had to stop and start recording again so this is the last video I have when they do come down.
The birds kept going back in after the warning alarm. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with it but when it did happen as you can see in this video, I wasn't ready for it at all. It was very emotional and quite sad to see them come down like that, I know they are an eyesore but it was just all the waiting and then that's it.
There was a gust of wind just before they came down and my battery of my phone which was charged all night went right down to critically low which made me think there might have been some paranormal activity.
Also the way the wind was swept the other way as you cant really see on this video but other video's on YouTube was a bit weird.
Anyway thought i'd add a comment to this as it was the very first time i've ever experienced this in person. It is definately a different experience being there than watching it online even watching this back it seems different to how I saw it in person.
