Female sprinters kneeling at the starting line

The sun was up a bit further by the time I got here I liked the way that the sun was catching the trees, although this photo doesn't do it justice.

 

As I'd finished weeding the veg patch yesterday I dug out my rotovator. I had a schoolboy error in that I hadn't turned on the fuel before trying to start it. I even took out the spark plug to see if that was the problem! Once it was up and running I had a very satisfying time going over the area. I then planted four rows of potatoes and then called it a day!

Once again I am out before dawn, but on the coast this time. This is Start Point lighthouse, seen from the beach at Beesands.

Start-II produced between 1960 and 1965 was to be a more professional "brother" for Start-B. It has a new Valor shutter, film winding crank, automatic frame counter and lock preventing from taking multiple exposures on the same frame. But it has Euktar lens again and there is no flash shoe. Why? I don't know, but it is certainly quite stupid. Even than I think it's the most beautiful member of whole Start family! :-)

 

It's dimensions are 140 mm (H) x 77 mm (W) x 101 mm (D) (including lens, but excluding knobs and other protrusions).

 

Would you like to see it's shutter housing finish? Or maybe take a look on the previous or next model of Start?

Not really sure if I will be game enough to wear it thou...

I usually prefer the whole neck to knee cover everything possible look...

Well if I don't at least I will make a pattern for all of the brave "hip" girls that will...

As you will note...Was not game enough to photo myself with just the bikini top on...

The is a photograph from the third running of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon ("The Flatline") which was held at Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 13th September 2014 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 event has grown from just over 600 in 2012, to over 900 in 2013 with around the same number finishing in 2014. Entry to the race closed weeks in advance.

 

This is a photograph which is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the start and finish of "The Flatline" 2014. The URL of the main set is www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157647516503901. This photoset contains photographs of the start (at the 600 meter mark) and then of the finish (at the 400 meter mark to go) up to a finish time of about 1:45.

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 850 participants who took to the start line.

Weather: The weather on the day was almost too warm for running which is a very rare complaint in Ireland. The runners were bathed in hot 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 cooling.

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.

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

Before the insanity started, my good friend Paul and I spent a week in the Highlands of Scotland, more or less divorced from the outside world. When we went shopping before setting off, there were no problems. On our return, the world appeared to have decided that the possession of copious amounts of bog roll was now the best way of combating the novel corona virus pandemic.

 

A 'moody' sky over Loch Awe. Yes, there was lots of rain.
