Photos of where you run

Slogger Jogger · 2009-02-06 18:37:00

Someone suggested this on another thread so heres a photo taken on a run I did in the snow the other day. Usually a fast downhill, but the other day it was slightly slower for obvious reasons :) By the way, these were the instructions robinph posted to my question of 'how to display your photo image..' Hit the "All sizes"…

@Slogger - what a fantastic place to have at your disposal... It's making me want to go looking for somewhere nicer than the traffic-dodgin' spot I currently use! (when I force meself out every now and then, that is)

With the sun up and autumnal colours on show Glendalough is such a stand out location.

It's shots like that SJ that make me want to sticky this thread and I think it should be compulsory for all runners to carry a camera.

But only if you have the the type of views that SJ has on his doorstep. The urban jungle doesn't make nice photos.

True enough but it's only 5km from my house to the the hellfire club, I think a panoramic pic is a must now.

That's about 30 minutes, still enough daylight if you get going now.

I was looking down on SJ's misty views this morning, having walked up with the kids. His photo's have inspired me, I'm charging the camera and will get out and snap the evening view.

As promised, pics from tonight's SJ-inspired ascent of Hillbrook.

View from top. Lug is the far cloud-covered peak.

Gorgeous.
NO wonder you guys are such good runners. I thought I had been running on some hills today but tsuh!....they arent hills like you have there. You are spoiled for hill running for training.
I had a nice sea view where I ran today. Must borrow a camera next time I go , in case it looks nice again:D

Keep them coming

What you had were the links to the page of the image, not the image itself. I think I decoded which ones you were trying to link to.

Thanks robinph.

I used the "insert image" button, so am not sure where I went wrong.

Perhaps I needed to convert the format to html or something.

Thanks for the decoding job.

Picassa doesn't give the BBCode that you'd need for here directly, but this method "should" work.

Open the page for the image you want to post.
Click the "Link to this photo" link to the right of the image.
Select the code in the box labeled "Embed Image" and copy it ( CTRL-C ) .
Open this page: http://www.seabreezecomputers.com/html2bbcode/
Paste ( CTRL-V )the code into the big text box.
Press the "select all button".
Press the convert button.
Copy the code from the big text box.
Paste that code into the message box on boards.ie

That should work.

Hey Woddle - great photos, are you running up there in this weather?

Love that route (on the bike) up from Rathfarnham (10km of torture until the Military Road levels out), but gave up running on Stocking Lane a couple of years ago, after one too many hops into the ditch...

I'd do a bit up there but in this weather it was just on Sunday gone, brought a backpack with hot chocolate
From my house it's only 5k to touch the hellfire club, so no excuses.
I've cycled up a fair few times aswell and I think that can feel slower

These woods are about 1 minute from my front door. Most of my runs come through here. Took this this evening as light was falling. Lovely mist starting to rise up as the air chills.

Here is a few photos of Hazelwood in Sligo and the views that can be seen from running there that I took last month. This is a flat 2 mile loop just located outside Sligo town and on the edge of Lough Gill. It is a very popular running spot in Sligo. The area that can be seen across the bay is Slish wood which is also a popular running spot.
I will try to put up the rest of the photos I took up on pix.ie later

I use Picasa to host. Then I select the image size (Med) and copy the "Embed Image" link. It paste's (never mind the bolded text) as:

<table style="width:auto;"><tr><td><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/WEQHd-AV8XcZGapU6gfEOw?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_oEcvTzEYVmA/TNrAWSUCb6I/AAAAAAAAALw/09Wa06xCuX0/s640/Enter forest.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/joyceart/AnnaghHillRecce?feat=embedwebsite">Annagh Hill Recce</a></td></tr></table>

Then I hit the "insert Image" postcard icon above, paste the bolded text only from the above, and it should paste:

[IMG]http://lh6.ggpht.com/_oEcvTzEYVmA/TNrAWSUCb6I/AAAAAAAAALw/09Wa06xCuX0/s640/Enter forest.JPG" height="480" width="640"[/IMG]
