MANY THANKS TO MY CLUB METRO ST. BRIGID’S (MSB) FOR THEIR VERY KIND SPONSORSHIP
THEIR WEBSITE IS HERE
I am enjoying my short timeout in Ireland. I will begin running thru Mexico on June 21st.
It was nice to see some of the lads that haven’t been down to the club for a run for years at Christy Fagan’s 50th birthday party
Back row left to right: Great clubman Ken Byrne, Frank Nolan (When he is not living in Florida!), John Hyland who is my best mate in the club and huge rival from our club racing days! Pat Scanlon still working on his golfing handicap! Ditto for Robbie Murray who’s son will soon be playing soccer for Ireland! Ageless Tommy ‘ Swifty ‘ Swift who joined the club when Chris was born! Almost 50 years in MSB! Eamonn Dolan from Liffey Valley Running Club is a great friend of our club and was my chief crewman when I broke the world 24 and 48 hour treadmill records all those years ago in 2003 :) Dermot McShane who ran one marathon: 2:30:50 I have not seen him since 1990… So nice to see you again Dermot
Front row left to right. Tony Mangan wearing his first pair of street shoes in 7 months, Eamonn Coghlan, our club president AKA the ‘ Chairman Of The Boards ‘ is MSB’s other indoor world record holder! >> WATCH HERE << Eamonn who was recently appointed a senator in the Irish government is the only athlete ever to break the 4 minute mile barrier as a master The man himself Christy Fagan, Brian Bowden is another great former club servant who I have not seen in so many years. This was a wonderful night.
