    Any link to results? Also was there an issue with the measuring of the course? My runkeeper app came in at 4.39k and I heard another guy say the same at the finish line. Other than that it was a nice event with a great atmosphere.

    Yes, my watch didn't work but the course was definitely less than 5k. Would like to see the results.

    Results are up. http://www.vlm.ie/africanrun2016/

    This has me down as 19.55 for the 5k which would be a PB if it were the right distance. It's frustrating because I probably would have gotten a PB anyway if the distance was correct because I was running quite well.

    Course was well short. 600-700m short for the 5k and 800m or so short for the 10k. Fun run though and small field made it enjoyable.
