    Anyone into running? I'm training for the Dublin City Marathon this year and I don't have access to a Gym on Saturdays and Sundays. So I'm wondering if anyone would like to join me on the long runs of a Sunday?

    I suppose the lack of access to a Gym on the weekends is a good thing, as I need to spend time on the road as well.

    Don't know which side of the county you are on but a running group goes from Kilmartins in Athlone every Sunday morning at 8.30. I think they have just started training for the flatline HM but there might be someone for DCM amongst them.

    Itzy - The Roscommon Harriers have a great DCM group. They call themselves the Running Rossies and have grown in numbers over the last few years. I know that they used to head off on their weekly "long run" on a Sat morning from Hannons Hotel but this may have changed since last year. Let me know if you need their contact details.

    Also, the AIT AC have lots of folks training for the marathon in their AC and Fit4Life groups. the Tri-Club also have people who are training for the marathon.

    My knee is in bits but I hope to get it sorted soon, until then I won't be able to join you for any long (or short) runs.

    Good luck with the training and the marathon, the flatliner is on the 13th Sept which is an excellent long run training session leading up to the DCM.
