I heard reports of stones being thrown at participants. Wouldn't those bold youth be better off taking up running. Luckily I was gone before they came along but I think those running a 10 minute mile sort of pace got caught.

The children were all very positive and only saying nice things while I was passing.

Hi John, appreciate the volume of runners at race but thought you would have enough assistance to process results at this stage.
From a novice perspective it means a lot to establish ones progress by checking the final position, so never underestimate the significance of these results to the ordinary Joe soap.

In reply to the last comment...

I have nothing to do with the results. The race is organised by the Cork BHAA and as soon as the results are available, I put up the link here.

BHAA results always take a few days to appear.

Apologies John for the presumption and my impatience.
Greatly appreciative of the excellent and efficient uploading of race information.Must curb my enthusiasm!:)

To the ordinary Joe Soap above, John does a super VOLUNTARY job of profiling and commenting on the races, and you feel disappointed that he doesn't have results up 10 mins after race that you can view from the comfort of your armchair! I have to admire the restraint John displayed in his comment. Talk about being unappreciated. By the way, I don't know John, nor have I anything to do with the running of these races. But I would like to thank John for his super blog.
Regards. Kevin.
