The anonymous runner........this photo sums up the experience for a lot of the Marathon runners on the day....the sheer exhaustion after running 26.2 miles on a hot Summers day......photo by David Bradshaw.

A family finish......for the size of the event, Cork is still a low key event with lots of kids finishing the last 100 metres or so with their dads.......something almost impossible to imagine in other big City Marathons..........photo by David Bradshaw.

Supporters in Patricks Street waiting on family and friends to finish........photo by David Bradshaw.
