This is a photograph from the 6th annual Longwood Village 10KM and 5KM Road Races and Fun Runs 2015 which were held in Longwood Village, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 18th October 2015 at 11:00. This is the sixth year which Longwood GAA/Village have hosted race events. This year's event was an outstanding success and builds on the fantastic success of last year's race. The overall number of participants, including walkers, was over 440 which is up on last year's final numbers. There was over 220 runners and joggers in the 10KM while there was almost 200 runners, joggers and walkers in the 5KM. The events were organised as fundraisers for both the adult and juvenille teams at Longwood GAA club. The event also provided a fundraising opportunity for the local St. Vincent de Paul charity. Overall the whole day was a great success with the hard work put in by the organising committee ensuring that participants enjoyed their race experience. Both routes were accurately measured, kilometer points clearly marked, junctions well stewarded, and electronic timing provided. The event provided many local runners, joggers, fun runners and walkers with a local event to support whilst at the same time providing runners preparing for events such as the Dublin marathon with an opportunity to race a short, fast, distance in the lead up to marathon day. The GAA club provided excellent stewarding and traffic management all around the course. The race had a professional feel to it and it is sure to grow next year given the very positive feedback from many of the participants today.
This photograph is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the event. There were photographs taken at the start of the races and the finishes of both races in Longwood GAA. The full set is available at this link www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157660017638535
Longwood is a small village in South East Co. Meath and is close to the town of Enfield with access to the M4 Motorway. The weather was almost perfect for road running. A beautiful crisp autumn morning with dry cool conditions. 5KM Course: The 5KM started in Longwood village. Runners then took a left turn in the Village down St. Oliver's Road. This straight section of road brings runners to a left turn onto a very well maintained boreen road for less than one kilometer. The race then emerges and joins with the 10KM at Stoneyford where the runners take a left and then another left before arriving back at the finish line in Longwood GAA club. Overall this is a very fast and flat 5KM with no hills to speak of.
10KM Course: The 10KM event begins in Longwood Village outside Dargan's Pub and proceeds westward out of the village. There are some interesting points along this part of the course. At the 2KM point the runners will run under the double bridges - an aquaduct for the Royal Canal and a bridge carrying the Dublin Sligo Railway line. The race then enters county Kildare just before the 3km and after taking a right turn at the four-cross roads known locally as Lally's Cross it returns to County Meath on top of the River Boyne Bridge (Ashfield Bridge) which forms the county boundary. The race follows a straight road for the next 2KM until runners encounter Blackshade bridge which is the toughest climb on the route. As a point of interest Blackshade bridge brings runners back over the Royal Canal and the Railway line. The race then crosses the River Boyne again at Stoneyford before taking a right which will bring runners on a testing two kilometer stretch with some short hills. The 10KM course then joins with the 5Km course for the final 1.5KM back to Longwood GAA club for the finish.

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!

The 750 Crab Fair Dent Fell race ran on Tuesday 12th Sept. Apologies for the sub standard quality of some of these photos as the light was pretty bad. Dark grey clouds and at times torrential rain. Excellent effort by all the runners in such atrocious conditions.
Taken at the World Half Marathon Championships in Cardiff 26/03/16
The weather did its best but the atmosphere couldnt be dampened, great fun had by athletes and spectators. Massive respect to all who took part
This is a photograph from the Portumna Forest Marathon, 50KM, 100KM, and Half Marathons which were held all during Saturday 11th June 2016 starting at 07:00 in Portumna Forest outside Portumna in Co. Galway Ireland. This is a very popular distance running event held annually in the forest. There is a series of loops in the forest which make up a 5KM loop which starts and finishes at the car park/amenity center in the forest itself. The route is predominantly flat and has a very good surface. Shade is provided in many parts of the course with the mature forest which has grown up and is manged by Coilte the Irish Forest service. In the photographs in this set you will mainly see 50KM, 100KM and 1/2 marathon runners. The 50KM runners have BLUE bibs, the 100KM green bibs while the 1/2 marathon runners have red bibs. The marathon distance race starts at 12:00 and these photographs are mostly taken between 07:00 and 11:00. The location and organisation is excellent and there is a great atmosphere amongst all of the runners, joggers and walkers who take part in the various distances.

Another great turnout for this the 3rd Xborder Challenge run from Gretna to Carlisle, it got quite hot as we neared the finish but was still pleased with time sub 40 .
All pics taken by my wife Kristy Liddle.
Just look at my runner bean plants! They're taller than the canes they're tied to, and the canes are much taller than me! My first crop was decimated by slugs, so I really nurtured this second crop and I'm really pleased with the results. It's the first time I've grown beans and I'm just loving picking them straight of the plant to eat raw or cook straight away!
