Name|Target|Comments
Belcarra|4:45-4:59|Second ultra 'attempt' so just want to complete this before Connemara.
Krusty_Clown|3:45:00|Plan is to run the first 20 miles @7:12, then try to pick up the pace for the remainder to 6:55/mile
Izoard|4:30|Objective is to register a sub 4 marathon (3.45/3.50), after too many years of pacing and IM marathons and finish in 4.30. Will be hanging on the coat-tails of giants to get me around.
menoscemo|4:10:00|just hoping to hold a steady 8 min/mile pace all the way round. If I can do that comfortably I know I am in shape for my target in Conn.
TFBubendorfer|3:53:00|The plan is to run the first half @ 7:45 and the second half @ 7:15 per mile.
Marthastew|4:30|as this will be my first 50K I'm (hopefully) guaranteed a PBI'd be delighted with 4.30
Glennhysen|4:45:00|First attempt at a distance greater than the marathon. Planning on 9 minute miles the whole way round
Aimman|4:40:00| Keep it at 9 min miles and avoid the stares from Anto which means 'Hurry up, we want to go home' on each lap :rolleyes:
ELFOYZER|sub 4:30??|First ultra - who knows what will happen:eek:
Oisin11178| 4.59| Paddy last:D
digijem| 4:45| First attempt at 50K, cant wait
RQ|5:00:01|Just to annoy Anto


Managed 4:06:30 in the end
15 minute improvement on last year which I'm delighted with. It also felt a bit more comfortable than last year so I'm really happy with the progress. Nearly scalped Gerry Duffy at the end, but I let out a roar with 2k to go and he sped up to stay just ahead :pac:

Finished in 4:43:58 - 2 secs inside my pre-race target! Great day and great chatting with Running coach, marthastew, claralara,grahamor, Philip and a few others throughout. Extremely happy with pacing throughout and even had enough for a sprint finish over the last 300m!! Paid for it on the massage table afterwards though!!

Whatever you say about Ultraman (F#£$%£$!!) he puts on a superb race. My only gripe is that I heard that the 4 hour pacer finished in 3:39:45. Don't invite him back.

A superb day out from start to finish. Worth the pain.

I think we should rename it to your description "Anto's laps of torture"

Didn't expect to finish today and got a marathon pb there too.

Thanks again Anto.

Can't believe I lost to Izoard though. Stupid f*cking stitch. :mad:

Excuseless

Looks like there was some great racing up front with a high standard filed.

Well done on yer second Bazman - know there are other bigger fish to fry for you later in the year

See Pablo T managed to reversed Art O Neil form with Enduro and looks like a super run from Jeff On Tour

Well done all

Great event to have been part of for my first 'and only' ultra. Well done Ultraman, you did an excellent job. Good buzz around the place too.

Well done to all runners today.
& to Ultraman1 & crew for hosting a great event.


Special mention to Jeffontour who lapped me with 6k ish to go looking very relaxed & running at what seemed to me 10k pace:eek:.
Also Meno who passed me looking like he was out for a gentle recovery run!

It was great to meet a lot of the ultrarunning community again, although you are all mad:).

Finished it in 4hrs 56 mins in my first ultra. Ran the first half in 2.21 and 20 miles in 3.01. Slowed up a bit for the final 11 miles but glad to have finished inside 5 hours.

Thanks to Anto for a great day and thanks to all the marshalls and other runners for the word of encouragement. Much appreciated.

Great race Anto, superbly organised and very enthusiastic volunteers! You even fixed the weather at the last minute, which I am really impressed by (and grateful for).

I had a grand day out, enjoying every step of it (in retrospect, even the last 10k).

G'wan RQ and Claralara!! Great to be mentioned in an esteemed report like that!

Anto, that was a fantastic race and you should be proud of yourself. It was very competitive but still maintained that friendly atmosphere and I'm already looking forward to next year. Well done!

John

p.s
Thanks to the girl with the banana bread it was delicious.
