In a very busy area like Glanmire, it was always going to be challenging, but there was excellent stewarding. Only downside for me was the desperately long and slow-moving queue after the finish line to get the numbers written down in order. And especially when it was so cold. There must be a better way of doing this.

Also the queues at registration were disappointing, especially those queueing outside in the rain. We are all advised to get to events early to register, that seemed the case yesterday.

With a busy place like Glanmire on a week evening there is always going to be a problem with traffic but if there was a Garda at the lights people might not have been held up for so long and the race might have started on time.
