Despite the forecast for fine weather, it seems as if the weather front arrived a few hours early on Sunday. After a damp morning, it cleared up later and was dry for most of the race.

Voucher........If you ran in Carrigaline then you should have got discount voucher for The Edge Sports store. If you go to this old post, you will see the location of their Superstore near the Kinsale Road roundabout. They also have a smaller shop in the North Main Street in Cork City.
Weather was almost perfect for this. Slight headwind in places, but couldn't complain. Tough climb at mile 2.
ReplyDeleteWell organised by Eagle AC as usual - 4 registration desks !!!! ( is that a record ), lots of visible stewards and all of them offering encouragement, and good food afterwards.
Good mornings work at Carrigaline.
Thanks to all.
The encouragement Mary Linehan gave me on the hill around mile 4 was fantastic and definitely gave me a faster time. Thank you. It was very much appreciated. It is really nice when more senior runners are so generous with their expertise, experience, tips, encouragement, etc.
ReplyDeleteAlso thank you to the caterers. The flapjacks were really nice. It was a lovely spread.
Well done to all the organisers. It was a great race.
