Friday, 31 July: 15:00 – 20:00
Saturday, 1 August: 9:00 – 18:00
Free Admission: Open to the public

Hi all,

Firstly best of luck to everyone on Sunday!!

I have a query from a friend. It's her first time doing it and she'll be picking up her number from the expo tomorrow. She wanted to know if it's worth bringing her two young daughters (7 and 4) over as if the expo is good and worthwhile then they'll have a little day out. If it's something they would be bored at then she'll just pop over quickly herself. Anyone know?

Not much there for kids to be honest. Its more of a commercial venture for running suppliers.

Last years was a pretty small event, nothing like the DCM expo...

I plan aon registering and paying for my race entry at the expo on Saturday morning (was a last minute plan to run the race). They had better not try and charge me into the expo too!!!

Stevo1983

Just back from the expo.
I only had to go through registration 4 times until I got my number. I got two numbers that belonged to women and another from another bloke with my name.

The goodie bag is interesting. The warts treatment is there, as is the mouthwash.

On the plus side there is a high 5 pack with gels and recovery mix and things. T-shirt seems quite good too. I'll feel quite the fraud wearing the T-shirt given I won't be running the race though.

wemmet

Why won't you run?

I thought the thing to stop your colours running in the wash was the most random

I found money was just falling out of my pocket at that fekkin expo!!!

Think the weather will be decent for a long run tomorrow morning anyway. An easterly wind would be just grand - would offset the hills at the end a little at least

Anybody staying in the Clarion? Fancy sharing a taxi to the start?

I thought the Scientology stand was really random. Never seen a religion at a race expo before!

ha ha, I missed that! That is definitely the most random stand ever!

iMac Hunt

Even more random I saw that Scientology Dianetics stand at the Terenure car show as well!

This Fat Girl Runs

Good luck everyone running this tomorrow!

davedanon

Yeah, I saw the dianetics stand as well. It is the holistic body/mind 'system' practiced by Scientologists. I got a picture too, but I know if I try to attach it here it won't open.

Anyone know if/where the results ate available, or are they doing the usual mega-Corp commercial ching-ching-wait until it's published in the local newspaper tie-in?

ha ha Ray, thanks for the shout out. Yes definitely never smiling again! Definitely lost 3 minutes due to that. A few club members were close to the finish and they were giving out to me (again) for looking so serious and not smiling. Do I really look that narky?

Anyone hit any PB's?
