    Got a small finishers shirt by mistake yesterday - would like to swap it for a medium if anyone is interested.

    Following a surprising 3.01 marathon earlier in the year, I continued to follow the P&D plan to give sub-3 hours a shot in Dublin. Training went well, with a 1.25 half last month and I thought I had a decent chance of achieving my goal. After a short warm up I lined up a little behind the 3 hour pacers twenty minutes before the start.

    Miles 0 – 3
    Congestion Zone! I haven’t known a race to be so packed for the first couple of miles. All runners came to a complete stop about 3 corners in, until the others got around the corner. There were lads running into bollards and cones as they tried to step off the road to find some free space to run in. It really wasn’t comfortable running in such a packed group and was quite hot at this stage.
    Splits: 6.53, 6.59, 6.39

    Miles 3 – 10
    As we get into the Park the 3-hr pacers are still ahead of me, but the gap starts getting bigger. I’m not concerned initially as my splits are decent for this uphill section with an evil wind in the face. The people of Castleknock turned out in force and made massive noise as we pass through here. Then its three downhill miles I was able to take the handbrake off and freewheel down fairly quickly. Sometimes in a marathon you know early-on that it’s not going to be your day, and after 7 or 8 miles I felt I was working a little harder than I should be.
    Splits: 7.02, 6.49, 6.42, 6.53, 6.26, 6.33, 6.38

    Miles 11 – 20
    Reach halfway in 1.29.49, but don’t feel comfortable now. Can I repeat this for another 13 miles? At mile 18 I’m thinking of slowing down and abandoning my goal distance, but a quick check of a pace band tells me I’m not too far off. A mile later, I know it’s not meant to be. My breathing is heavy, but the real problem is the soreness in the quads – probably from those faster downhill miles earlier. Pacers are long gone and there’s no way I’m going to be able to pull a couple of fast miles out of the bag to get back on track.
    Splits: 7.04, 6.47, 6.58, 7.02, 6.48, 7.02, 7.20

    Miles 21 – 26.2
    Grim now. Decide to jog it in, but the quads feel like they’ve been used as a punching bag. Power walk on Nutley Lane and Merrion Road for 30 seconds a time to give the legs a little break and felt slightly better after it.
    From mile 25 the crowds begin to get bigger and noisier and knowing I’m nearly there means there’s no way I’m stopping again. Despite the pain, I decide I’m gonna enjoy this – having the crack with the crowd, high-fiving kids, smiling and grimacing all the way home. Spot my wife and friends about 400m from finish and leg it over to the side to jump into them for a quick smooch.
    Splits: 7.20, 8.15, 7.47, 8.23, 8.30, 7.43

    A-MAZING support out there. Dublin should be very proud of itself for how well people turned out and the noise around the course. No disappointment for not reaching my target – a tough course that I probably didn’t pace well enough. Felt better knowing a lot of others struggled too. Massive well done to anyone that managed a PB.

    Reading in today's indo, the race director is saying he wants to keep this route from now on. Be a real shame to lose the Pearse Street / Trinity / Nassau Street section.

    I was thinking about this earlier. I know the route was changed to allow for the Luas works this year, but in all truth I can't imagine the race being moved back to the old route once the tracks have been laid. There'd be people slipping and tripping all over the camp.

    I wasn't mad about the change in route, particularly due to missing out on the heart of the city but more because coming around College Green and Nassau street to finish was fantastic. However, despite the fact that I seemed to be staring at the finish yesterday for ages with it not getting any closer, I thought the last 800m were fantastic, the crowds really packed in and made it really intense and the atmosphere for the run in was as good as any I've seen. Even if I barely had the strength to look around at that stage.

    I hate the Pearse Street section...
    Wouldn't be keen on that stretch through the park, but I liked this year's finish

    I liked the new start too, its good to take in some of the Liffey. The finish has to be a hundred times better, the Pearse Street loop is just cruel! Hope they keep the new course.

    3rd time lucky?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,551 ✭✭✭chinguetti


    I think its not a bad course. I always found the stretch around Trinity agony as you see/hear the finish and yet have a mile to go which can be a killer if you're hanging on.

    Yes, its a hilly course but if you run smart, you'll do well. I picked up 1,200 places from halfway to the line. Loads of people were flying by me after we went back into the Park and down to Donore. I remarked out loud that the drag up Crumlim awaited as it was straight into the wind & the race didn't start until Cormwellsfort Road. Local knowledge was very important yesterday in my opinion as the wind played a big factor in Crumlin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 173 ✭✭SnappyDresser


    Seems many people stuck by their pre race plan to target a specific time when the pre race conditions were not ideal.
    I remember reading a book that one of the marathon gurus said that if the temperature was above 12C you must make adjustments depending on how much above that it got. So out there in urban land it got I am sure close to 17-18C and with strong wind in places.
    Everyone should have adjusted rather than sticking to some pre race plan of a specific time. The word "carnage" has been used and I guess that was simply down to many but not all running at a specific pace that they wanted to go to attain certain time.

    I had gone out for a run that morning at 7am and felt it warm and windy and thought that unless people went measurably slower than normal they would suffer badly.

    Plus one for me. Thought the new route was way better for 2 reasons;
    1 it ran by my house and all the neighbors were out in force in Castleknock. It felt like running out to a packed Croke Park.

    And the Finish, it was only amazing. I loved it so much I didn't want it to end.

    I hated running by the Gingerman previously looking at all the people about to finish and then down Pearse st., it was a real tease I thought

    The race itself was tough. The wind was a killer. But I amazed myself yesterday. With not the best but not the worst race build up I had a poor sleep due to my beautiful 3 week old waking me up to tell us how much she loved us or hungry she was, most likely the latter. So as I lay in bed at 6.30am I actually thought of staying there.

    But dusted myself off and felt pretty good at the starting line. Plus I was in win win territory as I put zero pressure on myself.

    Wanted to run good up to Castleknock and my home. Kept on going well. Thought Crumlin was tough going with the wind and the hill but managed to bridge a gap to a group and hung in behind a big lad.

    Got to Milltown and was feeling ok and the crowds were amazing there too. Then from 20-24miles I got a bad stitch and had to drop my Pace by 30-45sec/mile. Then it eased but everything else was just a bit sorer so couldn't push too hard.

    Beggers bush on was fantastic, lapped up the crowds and my face hurt from smiling. Finished in 2:57.33, a 2min PB drop from April, 30mins faster than DCM 2013.

    Delighted.

    Thanks to All, Stewards, People at water stations, fellow runners, all on here, and most importantly my family and those who I have trained with this past 10 months

    I enjoyed it once we got onto the quays. However, there were a couple of sharp turns early on that meant you had to stop /walk as it was so congested.

    When I signed up for marathon, I chose the option to purchase a video. Can I see this video yet? If so, where do I go? Was my first marathon so not adept at knowing where to find such things!

    I think the adjective for the splits should be swapped around. To me it makes more sense for a quicker split to be called a positive split than a negative split.

    So, yes, I had a negative split yesterday (negative as redefined by me :D )

    If they do keep this route, I think it would be a little unfair to advertise it as "relatively flat".

    Found the new route super tough (extra drags at the start, the wind up chesterfield ave, and getting to milltown/roebuck later in the run). Lined up infront of 3'20 pacers, and slowly built up by the time we got to mile 12 went past the 3hr pacers. Was a bit unsettling to be up front without a safety net, and just kept pushing for fear that they'd catch me again (and to try get a bit of a draft up the road in crumlin!). Was working hard for it, and suffered in the last 6miles. Great day!

    If they do keep this route, I think it would be a little unfair to advertise it as "relatively flat".
    I don't think it's all that much hillier than before. There's roughly an extra 15 metres of elevation up at Castleknock as compared with the old route that cut across the park. I last did it in 2011, but I do remember when wending around the North side towards North Circular rd. the climb wasn't really noticeable. Whereas the long straight (and exposed) climb up Chesterfield ave. is more noticeable, especially into a headwind. Also, I guess the notorious Roebuck/Fosters ave hill feels worse now given that it comes a mile or so later.

    Is the halfway gun time or chip time?

    Went with my plan to run 2:50 despite the conditions. Was on track up to 20 miles but knew that with Roebuck to come I was going to lose time that I couldn't make up. Last two miles were especially tough but gritted my teeth and got it done, finishing in 2:52:37. Outside target but a good run nonetheless especially in the conditions. Well done to all. Tough day but amazing support.

    Oh what a day,really enjoyed my first Marathon.Thanks to everyone for all there advice.It really got tough going in the last 4 miles,but the crowd were just unbeliveable.it felt like been a superstar coming into the finish.I am very sorry to hear that some of us had a bad day,and i feel for you after putting so much time and energy in to your training.I was looking for a time of 4:30 and finished with 4:16 so was really delighted. A big thank you again to you all for your help and advice,exspecially the special one OSOSLO.

    Is the halfway gun time or chip time?
    I had a negative split of either 1 second or 8 seconds:pac:
    All are chip. Gun time is only there to decide places as only best gun time wins.
