One of our coaches completed it in 4:27, amazing achievement considering the max miles he did in training was 14.

I knew a few doing it from local. Times were up and down with one guy's being excellent and various other guys who've broke 3 hours regularly running about 3:10.

A wee girl from somewhere in Down(Laura Graham) did really well - ran 2:48 I think I read she has about 4 kids too and only got into running recently so some going.

Some fast Irish times. LL I think your man Hehir was doing it??

A mate of mine did it in 3.38 on his 50th birthday! Great way to spend your 50th

He was. I think he was trying to get an Olympic qualifying time but missed out on it but still set a new PB.

I don't think any of the Irish guys aiming for olympic qualifying time got it yesterday. I think maybe 4 Irish guys have it already though.

Lads any good running watches out there that simply records time and distance? I did have a garmin with heart rate etc but it was too fancy. Simply want a nice one that does the time and tells distance accurately.

Garmin Forerunner 110. Dead basic and simple to use if all you are looking is distance and time. Good battery life and I've had mine 3 years and used at least every other day and not one bit of bother (f**ker will probably blow up now)!! Not sure if they are still on the market though, try Amazon or eBay.

Exactly same as mine, Ive the heart monitor also that runs well with it... can take maybe 5 minutes sometimes to find a signal but grand when it does

Just entered the ballot for next years London Marathon its only opened for a few days if anyone wants to enter.
I see Brendan Rodgers did the Belfast one today.

Battling my way back from the couch (slowly, very slowly) and just wondering what you guys listen to on your runs. Am sure it has been asked here before but not trawling back through 342 pages! Any good podcasts ye would recommend?
