irelands fittest family

Jeepers those McSharrys looking more and more like machines as this goes on!

Mind you, this is at least as much about tactics as it is about strength or speed.

I think they'll win it.Form family thus far in the series,Dinan's a close second.

HeidiHeidi

I'm open to being proved wrong - but I think taking four of those yokes is utter madness!

The Princess Bride

That's how I would have operated that task, well done to them.

HeidiHeidi

OK, hands up, that was mega! Fair play to that lot!!

Mam of 4

Best of luck to them all , tough competition in all honesty , may the best team win , no matter who they are !

HeidiHeidi

Oh lordy, I don't this this is anything remotely like the McSharry's event :eek:
I'd safely say they're completely goosed in this one......

The Princess Bride

Wow the Mahers are fast.
Ouch though, oh dear.

seligehgit

Heartbreaking for the Maher family

Mam of 4

Oh lord , that really fell apart for the Mahers there , god love them .

Green&Red

Maher’s were my favourite family, that’s a real pity for them

HeidiHeidi

Ah that poor young one nearly had me in tears!

Yeah, themselves and the McSharry's both had a 2nd and a 3rd place.

Could have cried for that young girl.
She will no doubt hold herself responsible for it if they don't progress now.

Without having kept track of points, I felt they'd done enough by winning the relay.



Clearly I was wrong though!


(and given the coaches' propensity for challenging the most trivial of things, I presume there wasn't any doubt in reality!!)

Mcsharrys were faster in the first event is what I thought might have done it but Hogan were faster in 2nd so no idea!

Usually it’s the timed event that’s the tie breaker

If that's the order of the results, they clearly had some sort of a countback system to divide a draw. Shame they couldn't have explained it!

They should make it clear what the rules are in the event of a tie.

HeidiHeidi

Those ramps nearly do for me at walking pace, never mind sprinting for your lives :eek:

pjohnson

That 14 year old was a beast in the relay aswell.

HeidiHeidi

Who did Mairead say were the mountain runners?

The Princess Bride

Fair play, well deserved.

Mam of 4, we need to enter for Laois next year!

pjohnson

Was that the same girl that was falling on the beam that had that nasty fall?


Jay nearly fell but Tom caught his shirt to keep him up.

Mam of 4

Well done to the Hogans , hard luck to the Mahers .

seligehgit

No three in a row for Anna!:D

HeidiHeidi

Oh God, every time I see that sand dune, I get the shivers just thinking about it!

Mam of 4

Geez , has this ever happened in a final before ?
The poor chap , hope he's ok .

HeidiHeidi

Jaysus, that's a hellish challenge :eek:
