    Yeah, we had a secret stash of Kryptonite (lucozade), at about 7k and we kicked Supermans ass! Poor Captain America was shattered by his muscular suit and mask suffocating the oxygen out of him and he was toast at 6k.

    Captain Jack Sparrow fell away at 8k, too much rum I think, the damn Mexicans were harder to shake off but their heavy ponchos were their undoing in the end!

    We the silk shirted afro wearing hippies ruled the day:-)

    Well done TFGR and Hannibal, you guys have just reminded me whats so great about running!!

    Results are here: https://dublin.mo-running.com/results-2014/

    I finished in 27th. Getting caught behind the crowd at the start of the race and that massive hill on the 3rd km resulted in me getting a slightly slower time that usual but only by about 1 minute.

    This was my first 5k yesterday, had a great time, good atmosphere, everyone up for a laugh. Got fairly stuck behind people at the start and at a couple of other points like the sharp turn at the top of the hill, but was comfortable the whole way round and finished strong, looking for my next one now!

    My wife and I ran the 5k on saturday - her first ever run, my first in about 18 years.
    I was glad to be able to finish it and she is naturally over the moon at actually doing some running, even talking about doing more races.
    Great atmosphere at the event, havent experienced that type of vibe before.

    PS, @ This Fat Girl Runs, we saw you there alright and noticed your sign, pity we didnt know you were a fellow boardsie we would certainly have said hello!
