In Mailbag this week ...

A certain eagle-eyed viewer of Ireland AM on TV3 has noticed that presenter Sinead Desmond has a favourite mug - anyone else have one to match??!



Thanks to Elaine ... anyone know the connection between the TV3 crew & our little race in Portlaoise?

Girls a running

I was expecting a few of our female runners out last night as they assured me on Sat. night (with beer in hand) that they were making a comeback. Maybe they FORGOT!!!!

Oh! What a night!

We really had a great night at the Mystery Night. Well done to Catriona and Patrick, and to all the characters who showed up to make the night so much fun. A whole night out and didn't ever talk about tri!! I have a pile of photos to go on the site, once the old laptop comes back from the PC hospital this week.

Thank You
