    Yeah, you can't map the whole thing out, and you'd get bored if it was the same route every time. But even the first few miles would be handy for people who arrive late, especially if those miles loop back past the car park.

    (I've an ulterior motive of course - I'll probably be doing the group runs again in the summer, but I'll be running up there, maybe starting earlier, and it will probably be handier for me to meet people on the run rather than at a fixed time and place)

    We waited for 5, sorry. There were 4 of us in the end, 3 in high vis jackets!

    Might well have run past you in that case as I was only looking out for a big group. Thanks for waiting on :)

    Might be a while before my w/end run is in the Phoenix Park again.

    Oops I underestimated how long it would take me to get there from Ballybrack so arrived around 15 mins late :o

    On a more positive note it was a great day for a run & really enjoyed going randomly around the park, not sure if I actually passed ye or not don't think I saw any big groups on my travels.

    We headed off at about 11:10 went down the Kyber at first and looped back up the Glen Rd and back down Chesterfield Av. there were 6 of us initially, 5 fellas and 1 girl.

    Cheers for waiting a bit, apologies for delaying ye.

    I had to look at the map of the park to figure out where those roads were and think I managed to go the exact opposite way, along Chesterfield Avenue to the edge of the park & then along the North Road as far as the zoo before turning back.

    I'll probably be up for a few slow miles @ 10am, then watch the end of the Cupids Dash 10k, then do a few more after (Mr Slow said he'd join in too after the race). I can meet you either at 10 ish near the zoo or from about 10:30 at the bottom of the Kyber (I think the race finishes up there).

    I'll be doing a (hopefully) long run on Sunday in t'park. I'll say I'll be at the group run, not turn up then run by you all 40 minutes later! :pac: Will probably be with a friend or two though...

    Mr Slow will get to achieve his lifelong goal of getting to run with me one day!

    10am at the entrance to the zoo sounds good, I'll drop you a text or message you on here on Sat to confirm - supposed to be having Valentine's food/drinks on Sat night...

    Ok lads, I'm now out for Saturday :( Have a physio appointment at 10.30. Going to get new runners tonight and just do a few easy miles over the weekend. Planning a big 17mile comeback next weekend though if anyone's around. Enjoy. :)
