The Rat Runner is a pacey little car that can be loaded onto any number of larger vehicles for easy transport across longer distances. After all, in the criminal activity trade a man needs to move from place to faraway place very often.
I suppose it is because the sets I owned with Sam Sinister always had a small car, I put him as a small car kind of guy. Another of my Adventurer revisits.
I was just getting ready to switch over lenses in the rain and as luck would have it 2 lovely ladies came running by,I instantly thought of flickr
This is a photograph from a set of photographs taken at the second running of the Castletown-Finea/Coole/Whitehall GFC 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Finea, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday August 21st 2013 at 19:30. The race was unique in the fact that it provided participants to run in two counties (Westmeath and Cavan) and two provinces (Ulster and Leinster) in Ireland during the same race. The race started on the Cavan side of the famous bridge of Finea and finished on the banks of the river. Finea is a beautiful Irish village which is well known for its scenery and it's position in the beautiful landscape of North Westmeath amongst the lakes and hills. The area attracts tourists for fishing and game shooting every year.
The race was very well organised with excellent stewarding and support and great community involvement. Well done to everyone involved. This race has the ability to grow in strength each year.

Overall Race Summary
Participants: There was about 150 participants of runners, joggers, and walkers.
Weather: There was mild August evening. There was a tail wind supporting the runners for the first 3Km but this turned into a strong head-wind for the final 2km of the race.
Course: The race starts and finishes at either side of the Bridge of Finea. The Bridge End Bar was the start where the race went out 400m on the Granard road and runners turned around at cone and headed back into Co. Westmeath over the bridge and the 1km mark. Following the Castlepollard Road the race took at left at the 2km and followed a loop back past the National School and back into Finea village again for a finish down on the banks of the River Inny. The course was a tough undulating course but fair. Any short hills were balanced out by adequate down-hill the other side. The stewards provided excellent traffic management on what is a busy section of road between the 1st KM and the final KM and the finish.
Location Map: Start/finish and registration took place at the Bridge (see Google StreetView Image here goo.gl/maps/1Zqek)
Refreshments: There was a very impressive selection of refreshments including sandwiches and home-made breads in the Bridge End Bar 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.

中美电影人协会: 《迷宫行者》讲述了男孩托马斯醒来时发现自己身处一个由巨石组成的巨大迷宫Glade中，他只记得自己的名字，其他一切记忆全都失去了。和他一样在这个迷宫中的还有一些孩子，他们也同样不记得自己是怎么到这里的。每天早晨迷宫的大门会被打开，而到了晚上就会关闭，迷宫中有一种可怕生物叫做Grievers。每隔三十天，就会有一个新的男孩到来，但令人意外的是，在托马斯之后来的却是个女孩，她带来了令人惊讶的讯息：只有托马斯才能带领大家走出迷宫，而前提是托马斯必须首先解开埋藏在他记忆深处的黑暗秘密。 来自http://denghaominimata.diandian.com/post/2014-04-30/40061661746

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.

Kite runner in middle of the fight rolling out wire from the drum, December 2010, Kabul, Afghanistan.
Afghan kite flying is called “gudpiaran bazi” and means “flying dolls”. Being an old winter tradition, kite flying in Afghanistan is considered a common hobby and a game for many Afghans. In Kabul, every Friday there are lots of people running their kites on a hill next to tomb of Nadir Khan. Sometimes they are children, sometimes friends in their sixties, that flown kites for half a century.
Kite runners attempt to down their adversary's kites. There is a lot of strategy and there are many different components to make a kite successful at kite fighting. There is the unit, the kite, the wire (tar), the drum (charkha), the Fight (Jang).
The unit consists of two people, one person to fly the kite and the other one to keep track of the wire. Each is of equal importance. The specific design of the kite and wire (apart obviously from the the team itself) is the key to kite fighting. When the opponent's kite has been downed, then the real battle turns into a race, the kite run, to see who retrieves the fallen kite.

Went to the Planetarium to catch the blue hour yesterday and the weather was just perfect. Plenty of people hanging around, joggers and sail boats on the lake. It's about time the weather gets better. More photos coming up.
A photo taken for the Lighting 102 Assignment 5.2 "Double Duty Light," physical fitness concept, on www.strobist.com. Possible end-use would be in a professional physical therapy magazine on runners injuries or fitness programs, either as a cover or an inside lead, with space on the left for text if needed.
This is a coworker who was kind enough to allow me to indulge my hobby during her daily after-hours workout. I had originally intended to try to capture a flash image with ambient motion blur, but I just couldn't make it believable due to ghosting effects, so I settled for the high-contrast frozen shot.
Strobist info: Bare green-gelled SB-80 DX from high camera right, flagged from the background and the lens, reflected from the rear with a full-length mirror, white foamcore, and aluminum foil reflectors for shadow fill. Triggered with Cactus V2s. Camera white balance set to "fluorescent." Some PS to remove wall sockets and power cord. You can see the setup shot here.
