A/R Awards 2022

OOnegative

Could someone please step up to the plate & organise the A/R Awards this year, I haven’t been around here enough in 2022 to do the job justice. It’s always a bit of fun & would be a shame not to see them being organised. Many thanks.

MisterJinx

Here we go. I've just looked over last years to see how it's done and the questions! Pop your suggestions in the comments below and then we can set up a poll for each of the categories. If you want you can also PM me your nominations but it would be best to put them down below so that you can jog peoples memories....

1. Poster of the Year.
2. Log of the Year.
3. Thread of the Year.
4. Newcomer of the Year.
5. Most Improved Runner of the Year.
6. Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual).
7. Race of the Year(Real or Virtual).
8. Post of the Year.
9. Comeback Person of the Year.
10. Performance of the Year.

Last year also had a Hall of Fame poster, so we can add that as well. Also for a bit of debate - what do you think of adding Shoe of the year?

It looks like @Murph_D did polls last year so I'll find out how to do that and set them up once we get the nominations in.

Swashbuckler

1. Poster of the Year. I'll only include my nomination here for fear of insulting others. Lazare gets vote here. It was a close call but him taking on the novices post marathon swung it for me.
2. Log of the Year. Close call again as always. I was torn between two here but MurphD gets the nod for me. I was particularly interested in the Lydiard approach and it all culminated in a very satisfying Chicago result. A great read all year, great writing style and a happy conclusion which was very satisfying as a close follower
3. Thread of the Year. I'm sure there were better ones but the shoes thread usually piques my interest any time there's a new post.
4. Newcomer of the Year. Need some help here.
5. Most Improved Runner of the Year. This was a toughie. Squinn is a clear frontrunner here but I have to go with kellygirl who absolutely battered her pbs this year. The DCM marathon result was particularly significant.
6. Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual). Need some help here. There was a definite standout from AMK but can't recall which one.
7. Race of the Year(Real or Virtual). Great Limerick Run for me. My debut marathon and the biggest race I did all year.
8. Post of the Year. Need some help here.
9. Comeback Person of the Year. There were a few comebacks but they disappeared again. The most deserving here in my mind is skyblue . Such patience and then a brilliant Jingle Bells. Great to see.
10. Performance of the Year. There were a few! Dubh Geananns spectacular mile was a clear frontrunner. Kellygirls , squinns and Lambays DCM. Laineys sub 20 5k. AMKs and skyblues Jingle Bells. Probably several others that I have forgotten. Regardless there's only one clear winner for me and that's Murphs Chicago marathon. Years and years of dedication and commitment brought that result.

Hall of fame : Enduro keeps getting my vote til he wins it.

Shoe of the year: I dunno if there were any standout new shoes. I didnt really invest in new revisions.Endorphin Pro is still my all-rounder all time favourite.

Annie get your Run

I still dip in and out of here but will need to look back on a few threads/posts to check but there are some easy ones for me

1. Poster of the Year. Will come back on this.
2. Log of the Year. There are a few I have on alert but one I read religiously is MurphD's. Apart from his writing style (those race reports!!), I love the analysis of his training and the work he puts in. The fact that he's still improving says it all really.
3. Thread of the Year. I'll have to think about this one.
4. Newcomer of the Year. I didn't follow the DCM thread this year so don't really know too many of the newer posters
5. Most Improved Runner of the Year. Kellygirl is getting my vote here, she has put in the work on multiple levels and improved across the board in the last 6+ months. Huge congrats to her (as well as being very envious!!)
6. Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual). Swashbuckler is getting my vote for his report on the Limerick marathon. There is some competition with MurphD for Chicago and some of AMK's are brilliant too but this wins for me hands down. A report worthy of the hard earned result.
7. Race of the Year(Real or Virtual).n/a
8. Post of the Year. Will come back to this but there was a post by AMK where he may have added stuff in for the win, can someone direct me? I don't see to be able to search by log (I hate the new boards!)
9. Comeback Person of the Year. Skyblue for me, delighted to see him back running regularly
10. Performance of the Year. This is a tossup between Kellygirl, Swashbucker and MurphD, it's going to MurphD for Chicago 2022 simply because he achieved something he's been chasing for a good number of years, he never gave up and executed both training and event excellently

MisterJinx

Here are my own ones

Poster of the Year.

For me this goes jointly to Lainey, Murph_D and Lambay Island for the Novices

Thread Log of the Year.

Some quality logs there, always enjoyed Murpgh_D's, Lainey, AMK and Swashbucklers Marathon Debut was brilliant

Thread of the Year.

All about the shoes in Gear and Equipment, it both cost me and saved me a fortune

Newcomer of the Year.

Don't know actually, I'll come back to it

Most Improved Runner of the Year.

Wottle had a great year, as did lazaire, Kelly Girl, Lainey, Event and Murph_D. I'd go with Kelly girl too

Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual).

Murph_D for Chicago as well

Race of the Year(Real or Virtual).

For me, it was FD HM. Generally it seemed Jingle Bells seems to go very well for lots of people

Post of the Year.

I'll come back to it

Comeback Person of the Year.

Definitely SkyBlue, patience is key

Performance of the Year.

Py in comrades

Shoe of the year

Endorphin Pro for me followed very closely by the Speed

ariana`

Brilliant nominees so far. All very very deserving, some of the categories are going to be very hard to vote on.

I just have a couple of ones that I don't see already mentioned.

Comeback of the year: I'd like to nominate @Mr. Guappa - I think in a similar fashion to @skyblue46 he's shown great patience and consistency to finish out the year with a couple of super performances most notably in the Waterford HM, a very well deserved return for the patient approach taken to setback after setback.

Hall of Fame: it's a sad one, but I'd like to nominate @TFBubendorfer 😓 for all he contributed down through the years.

Annie get your Run

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120014160#Comment_120014160

+ 1 to Thomas for the Hall of Fame, I was considering nominating the Remembering Our Friend thread as thread of the year but it seemed to sad. Having said that, there are some lovely posts in there and it shows how well liked he was by absolutely everyone here.

Kellygirl

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120014160#Comment_120014160

I love that idea for @TFBubendorfer. Very thoughtful.

crisco10

I'd love to answer each nomination individually but I've not really been on all that much due to running a lot less in 2022, particularly the 1st half.

But a few from me, agree with nominating Bubendorfer for hall of fame, the memories thread had all that was required to justify that one.

Thread of the year for me was also the Shoes bargain alerts thread. Despite low mileage I bought 3 pairs of shoes cos of this thread!

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2056251173/deals-voucher-codes

Finally, favourite race report was Lambays Limerick Report in May. It was a gripping read of a race that didn't go to plan.

py

Poster of the Year

@Murph_D offers a huge amount of advice across the forums/sub-forums. Drives discussions across various topics.

Log of the Year

I don't read every log but always enjoy @Laineyfrecks log. No BS and always finds a good balance between running and life (loves a good concert!).

Thread of the Year

DCM Novices thread. It was mentored superbly by @Laineyfrecks , @Murph_D & @Lambay island Fantastic to have this back after a couple of years break. Plenty of graduates still going strong. This is what gives new life to the community. In a close 2nd place was "Needing a No.2 toilet break on a run causing race day anxiety".

Newcomer of the Year

Need to come back to this... Is it based on performance or community contribution or both?

Most Improved Runner of the Year

Great strides forward from @Kellygirl More PBs to come.

Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual)

@Murph_D Chicago race report, stellar. 2nd place goes to @Dublinlad1989 for his debut at DCM.

Race of the Year(Real or Virtual)

Lap of the Gap - I don't think many from here took part but it was well organised, very challenging with stunning views. No fancy expos or online tracking. 42.2Km of road in the hilly Garden of Ireland. Highly recommended.

Post of the Year

This from @TFBubendorfer

Comeback Person of the Year

@Mr. Guappa has been through the mill with injuries. Some very strong PB performances in the past few months. Great to see the log and Strava activities flowing once again.

Performance of the Year

@Murph_D Chicago Marathon

Hall of Fame

@TFBubendorfer

The autumn marathons really got this place going again. Great to see.

Mr. Guappa

Couple of random ones that I didn't see nominated yet:

Poster: @Swashbuckler - he's up for Log and Race Report, may as well give him the chance to claim a hat-trick!

Thread: The Marathon Improvers thread - this thread was on fire in the month or two before Dublin, and a thread I took a lot from as I plan for next year.

Newcomer: Not sure if either/both have been around longer, or in different guises, but @squinn2912 & @babacool popped up on my radar this year for the first time.

Most Improved: @racersedge made huge strides and smashed his PB's at various distances.

Race of the Year: Dublin Marathon for me - saw it from the other side of the fence this year, and it's just a great experience.

Murph_D

When does the nomination process end? I'm finding it hard to think beyond the usual suspects this year - wish more people would get involved in the memory jogging process. (Very honoured by those mentions so far, btw, cheers.)

Poster of the Year

The premium award. Some good shouts so far. @swashbuckler has to be on the list alright - has taken over from B as the heart and soul of the forum, if you ask me.

Log of the Year

I haven't been paying as much attention to the logs this year. @AuldManKing gets a lot of deserved traction. There are a lot of good loggers bubbling under the big ones, and one of my favourites is @Dubh Geannain's. But the one that got everyone's attention this year was Swashbucklers Marathon Debut.

Thread of the Year

I agree that 'Remembering TFBubendorfer' is the one - in memorialising Thomas it demonstrated one of the best things about this forum, a space for runners to appreciate the sport and our fellow runners, especially when we lose them. I still feel bad that I never spoke to TFB, because you never know when it might be too late.

Newcomer of the Year

The Marathon Novice thread always produces some new blood and for me the standout novice, from a performance POV, was @AntrimGlens - but unfortunately he hasn't been heard of much since. Is @babacool a newcomer? I think so, definitely one for the list.

Most Improved Runner of the Year

@Kellygirl would be my choice too, but in the interests of having a shortlist there are other candidates. @marathon2022 has done some good things.

Race Report of the Year

What makes a great race report? It doesn't have to be a great performance, but it has to be an authentic account and reveal something about the runner and what makes them tick. Again, Swashbuckler's Limerick was such a great read, really got to the heart of a gritty, sub-3 debut. Exemplary!

Race of the Year

I'm going for the John Treacy Dungarvan 10 mile. Quality field, great course.

Post of the Year

This one gave me a good laugh, although I still don't know what it was 'heavily plagiarised' from.

Comeback Person of the Year

@skyblue46 is definitely in the driver's seat here. Are there ay others? Too many false dawns in this area! Not nominating him this year but I'm hoping @Wubble Wubble will be top of the list next year.

Performance of the Year.

What makes a great performance? Guts, determination, triumph over adversity. @Swashbuckler's marathon debut is a standout. But there are others. @Laineyfrecks sub-20 breakthrough at the Leixlip 5k was brilliant - she really smashed it after a good few disappointing attempts, a testament to her persistence and courage. Wottle's Valencia was also a highlight - a standout as it was obvious how much he learned from Amsterdam's difficulties - especially the bit about not tearing off from the gun!

babacool

I can’t really contribute that much here. Probably to everyone’s surprise (muaahahahhahahahah those who really know me it wouldn’t be a surprise at all), I’m not a big fan of awards. Usually leaves more “disappointed” than happy 😁 as it usually comes down to “who has more friends/followers or is a favourite in general”.

Which also means “don’t give me any votes please” 😂 (yes, I am a newcomer. I wouldn’t just post under different names!).

all in all, here is what I can contribute:

1. performance of the year: @Laineyfrecks anyone who can name my home race the race of the year, deserves the award 😁
2. Thread of the year: I have to admit that most recent BS thread about kipchoge doping has to win it. Such a brilliant read when it came to bedtime. A fairy tale that no other writer can outperform.
3. training log: @squinn2912 has to get it. His passion talking about cows and running is unbeatable
4. Comeback of the year: no clue. Sorry. Tough to really judge that and have it really based on something that is fair.
5. race of the year: have to go with someone probably not that well known: Great Grocer 5k! Race itself is a race. Flat fast 5k. But the goodie bag and the whole event - haven’t seen anything like it in Ireland! Great race!
6. shoe if the year: again something probably no one else has on his/her radar: hoka supersonic! A brilliant shoe that (to me anyways) outperforms any carbon shoe that I have tested and used!

MisterJinx

@Murph_D I'll look to wrap it up today and put the polls in place otherwise I'll be away from the laptop which I expect would make the admin more difficult.

Thanks for the suggestions above

Swashbuckler

A few more last minute additions from me.

Crisco10 deserved a nomination for comeback of the Year. Incredible to be fair after what he has been through. Also deserves a nomination for performance of the Year running 19.10 5k.

The DCM novices thread deserves a nomination for thread of the Year for the sheer amount of effort and good will that goes into it. Marathon improvers thread was good.

I never quite know who is a newbie versus a lurker who's been around for yonks. If marathon2022 is new then he gets my vote as he has made an effort throughout the thread.

There are a bunch of performances we are all missing here. Would be great if we could get some reminders. Especially earlier in the year.

Separately, lazare gets my vote for high five of the Year. Lainey gets the "talk to the hand I'm in the zone" award. AMK gets the "trying to kill off swashbuckler" award. Lambay gets the most impressive cramp of 2022 award. Anybody have any more razzies in mind?

Would be great if folks could get either nominations or votes in on this thread

MisterJinx

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120028281#Comment_120028281

Good call on Crisco10 @Swashbuckler I had forgotten until you mentioned it, in fairness it's a serious comeback considering everything that happen to him and to be able to get at 19.10 at the end of the year, bravo.

DeepBlue

Poster of the Year - Swashbuckler (pretty obvious, right?)

Log of the Year - Swashbuckler's Marathon Debut?

Thread of the Year - Remembering our Friend TFBubendorfer

Newcomer of the Year - marathon2022

Most Improved Runner of the Year - Wottle (anyone that does 3 marathons back to back deserves an award)

Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual) - Murph_D Chicago marathon report

Race of the Year(Real or Virtual) - Mallow 10

Post of the Year - I'm drawing a blank here

Comeback Person of the Year - MrGuappa (long and patient comeback from injury in Dungarvan 10 2020 to knocking out PBs for fun)

Performance of the Year - py Comrades 2022 (epic stuff)

skyblue46

I suppose I should contribute seeing as I will probably vote but it is really based on very little as I took a big step back from Boards over the last 15-18 months.

Poster: Definitely Swashbuckler. Prolific, informative, interesting and costly for many!

Log: For me it's a toss up play off between Swashbucklers, MurphD's and AMK.

Thread: I don't have one. If there was one thing I wished was different on Boards it's that people didn't avoid contentious threads and we had some properly debated topics. The Kenya Ban thread offered up such possibilities but was pretty much ignored. In it the idea that the Emperor might in fact be naked or that athletics has a drug problem that might actually reach the top were casually dismissed as bedtime stories 🙄 I suppose for some the sand is a very comfortable place to bury ones head.

Newcomer: Cannot contribute.

Most Improved: Kellygirl. Hopefully she'll be in contention in '23 too as there should be more to come.

Race Report: Swashbucklers Marathon. To be honest Murph's Chicago report was every bit as good but for me didn't have the intrigue. By this I mean that D ran the race I expected and did it brilliantly. I read what I expected to read. The relative 'car crash' nature of P's experience was more revealing.

Comeback: I only looked up Crisco's log after seeing it mentioned here. Not one I had previously read. Definitely meriting of the award. A fantastic return to running. Thanks to those who mentioned me. However I suggest you save your votes for next year and hope to give some comeback performances worth voting for. I still consider myself as being on the comeback trail rather than having reached the summit.

Race: Bob Heffernan. I always think there is something in the air there...hopes and expectations for many peoples first 5k after a race specific Spring training block.

Post: Didn't read enough...

Performance: I'd have a very short list here as I tend to judge performance based on contemporaries rather than the individuals past results. I look at age and gender results to get a true context of performance. With that in mind my shortlist would be any one of many AMK performances, likewise with MurphD and also Lainey's 5k PB performance. The standout however was D in Chicago... stupendous running made seem less so in the matter of fact way it was achieved.

Hall of Fame: TFBubendorfer

Nike Fanboys: too many to mention

Best use of Data: Wottle. It's all there...power, HR, effort.

Best Shoe launched in '22: Puma Nitro Deviate

Kellygirl

It’s been a crazy couple of weeks here and I really wanted to get time to do some research before voting but just spotted it’s wrapping up tonight so my time has run out. I don;t think I have anybody different to add. Xmas present wrapping will have to wait until tomorrow! thank you so much to those who nominated me. I really appreciate it and it is a lovely surprise that people think I’m worthy of a nomination.

1. Poster of the Year. @Swashbuckler / @Laineyfrecks / @Murph_D
2. Log of the Year. @Swashbuckler / @Laineyfrecks / @Murph_D / @Wottle (the three marathons in a row had me fascinated)
3. Thread of the Year. I enjoyed the Marathon Improvers Thread this year but all the ones mentioned above are ones I got enjoyment out of too.
4. Newcomer of the Year. Not sure
5. Most Improved Runner of the Year. @Lazare has done very well this year too.
6. Race Report of the Year(Real or Virtual). @Swashbuckler’s got me back to Boards after a bit of time out and Murph_D’s Chicago report …. I always enjoy Murph_D’s style of writing.
7. Race of the Year(Real or Virtual). The Cork Half was probably my favourite race this year.
8. Post of the Year.
9. Comeback Person of the Year. Mr Guappa and SkyBlue though I expect we’re going to see so much more of both next year.
10. Performance of the Year. Has to be Murph_D in Chicago really.

I feel I’m doing so many posters an injustice here. I’ve read some great posts during the year and now can’t remember who wrote them.

Mr. Guappa

Seems like there is space for a '2023 Moments of the Year' thread next year where noteworthy race reports and posts could be linked. Could be useful to shine extra light on people's achievements, and would be a useful resource when it comes to memory jogging for next year's awards.

Swashbuckler

Great idea.

Lazare

Ah gutted I missed this. Haven't been online the last couple of weeks with such chaos in work and life (Annual chaos, nothing wrong 🙂).

Honoured to receive a few mentions, thank you guys so much.

ewc1978

I’m not that active on here and when I am I very rarely look at usernames anyway so names don’t really mean anything to me.

The one that did stand out though was a poster called FinnC on the marathon improvers thread, gave some great advice and advice I have put into practice. For me ,anyway he would get my nomination.

MisterJinx

I forgot to close the nominations yesterday, some pints beckoned, so everybody above is in 😀

I'll put the polls up over the next day or 2

Murph_D

Cheers P. Don’t forget the Newcomer poll!

AuldManKing

Apologies - missed this totally - was too tired doing battle with Swashbuckler.

AuldManKing

Just voted on all the polls - Is there a 'Post of the Year' poll??

For me - its Krustys post on 'Remembering TFBubendorfer. '

MisterJinx

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120041079#Comment_120041079

Just going through it now, there is just one nomination that I can see, is there any more or its quite a short poll?

Swashbuckler

We had marathon2022 and babacool. Can't recall any more.

Murph_D

Think we had a mention of @AntrimGlens as well.

MisterJinx

Super thanks just grabbed the laptop and will get it sorted now!

MisterJinx

Are there anymore nominations for post of the year?

There are 2 currently.

Krustys post on 'Remembering TFBubendorfer.

This from @TFBubendorfer

crisco10

@MisterJinx - thanks a million for all the effort you out into this. Can't wait to see the prizes you send out. 😉

Swashbuckler

Is there any big fanfare announcements coming?

If you're busy I can pull something together.

MisterJinx

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120059022#Comment_120059022

I'm just trying to get my head in gear!

MisterJinx

Drum roll please for the major announcements from the expertly run A/R Award of 2022 which was loosely put up, with ever changing deadlines, consistent selling mistakes, missed polls and no closing date!

And here are the winners, in the particular order in which I saved a copy of the poll results:

Shoe of the year - even with the help of a lumping in of the big swoosh Nike racers into a single category the Endorphin Speed came out top trumps, not surprising really as it's the best all rounder money can buy. Go buy them, there is a thread for that.....

Poster of the year - a very tight result here but out on top is @Murph_D who I think everyone will agree is a well deserving winner, except of course for those that didn't vote for him. We're personally also glad the usurper, @Lazare 's French cousin Lazaire didn't win as that would have been embarrassing.

Newcomer of the year 2022 - Is the aptly named @marathon2022. A reincarnation into marathon2023 would make them a shoe in for next year too.

Race of the year - The perennially nominated Meryl Streep of the awards, DCM, didn't make the short list this year due to a lack of historical understanding and as a result we have Jingle Bells taking the title this year.

The Hall of Fame went to @TFBubendorfer

Performance of the year - again a tightly fought race, much like their performance but edging it out, with a superb race is @Murph_D 's Chicago Marathon, a top 5% AG result which we can all be very jealous of and aim towards with consistent effort and a well worked race day execution.

Comeback of the year - some good nominations here and the award goes to @crisco10, considering what 2022 entailed for him it's very well deserved and very welcome to see. @skyblue46 - we're watch you for next year......

Race report of the tear - It's a great read, horrendous suffering, grit and determination abound, topped off with a massive delay in posting it adding to the anticipation, it goes to @Swashbuckler for his sub 3 marathon debut

Most improved runner of the year - the character limit on boards doesn't allow for the number of improved pb's and triumphs this year but shows in the massive number of votes for @Kellygirl

Thread of the year, unsurprisingly, goes to the tribute to "remembering our Friend TFBudendorfer"

Log of the year - a perennial nomination here and no surprise at it's one of numerous great logs to read, the award goes to the ever readable and relatable log of @Laineyfrecks who is continuing to Dream big and work hard to achieve her goals while serving us a good dose of 80's and 90's classic hits, some poetry and ruminations of life while also running.

And finally the big competition that didn't make the starting line, the epic battle between @AuldManKing and @Swashbuckler to see who could push themselves to the absolutely limit over the course of the year and edge the other one out in a final mileage challenge to round out the year. It was very close, before they went dark on each other (I'm sure only in the Strava visibility sense and not in cursing each other on lonely Christmas day runs) there was just 0.1 miles between them, neck and neck until Swashbucklers hunger for the title won over sensibility and he pulled out a monster 20 mile run on new years eve to take the crown leaving AMK to rue the 1.8 miles he was short. The Gladiators will fight again next year and AMK will run all the cool downs this time.....

Thanks everyone for nominating, voting and participating in the A&R forum in 2022. Happy new year and here's to a fruitful 2023 full of PB's, epic races, new shoes and wins big and small.

/P

ewc1978

Some of those results don’t match up to the polls. Just saying.

MisterJinx

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120059487#Comment_120059487

They do from when I screenshotted them just before the post?

ariana`

Thanks @MisterJinx and well done to all the worthy winners!

Kellygirl

Thanks so much for organising @MisterJinx and thanks to everybody for the nominations and votes. It’s very much appreciated.

Well done to everybody here who has kept the forum alive. I was guilty myself of going quiet during Covid when I was only easy running but I owe so much of what I have learned about running to the people on Boards … even though I need to stop reading the shoes thread!

Swashbuckler

Thanks a mill for organising. Some of the categories were super competitive. I was following the poll results. I think poster of the Year and performance of the Year were particularly tight.

Well done all for your deserved nominations and awards.

ewc1978

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120059494#Comment_120059494

Laineyfrecks was 2 votes ahead last time I checked,which was before this thread was created ,for performance of the year and poster of year was a tie, still is that way on my screen anyways.

Maybe there should have been a cut off point for the polls.

MisterJinx

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/120059674#Comment_120059674

Yes there totally should have been a cut off time 😂 As I said it was loosely organised!

Here are my screenshots for those 2 categories

OOnegative

Well done to all the winners, all richly deserving recipients.

AuldManKing

Well done all - thanks for pulling it together - it's all a bit of fun

(But If I was 2nd and should have won there'd be hell to pay :) !! )

diego_b

Well done to all and fairplay for putting it together.

py

Thanks for organising @MisterJinx and congrats to all nominees/winners.

Murph_D

Nothing like a controversial result! 😁 Honoured to have somehow stumbled over the line, although my own POTY nominee deserved it far more. Thanks all, and fair play to @MisterJinx for putting it together.

turfman1

These polls turned out to be like the American elections, winning the popular vote doesn’t mean you actually win!

Well done to those who did win and those who finished 2nd and still won lol !!

Not having an official cutoff point for voting seems like a bit of an oversight. 😂Some craic.

Bluesquare

Well done everyone !
