đź‘‹ Hi, I'm MikeGriffin. I live in Castlebar, a town in Co Mayo, in the West of Ireland.
I enjoy running and being outdoors. I race over a range of distances from 200m to 10km.
You can email me at me@mikegriffin.ie, and also find me on Mastodon at @maidhc@mastodon.ie
Last Sunday, during our weekly long club run we got to talking about silly challenges. Someone mentioned they had heard of a “24 park runs in 24 hours” challenge and we chatted about whether or not that’d even be possible. Whatever about running 24 park runs in 24 hours, for a total of 120km. That’s hard enough.
Last Saturday in Tullamore, I ran in the Tullamore Half Marathon. The race doubled up as a few championship races:
We’ve got a couple of these Kidizoom phones in the house and the girls are very protective of them so of course they set a password to access them. And of course they regularly forget their password too!
For the Mayo AC 5k series this year, the club asked members to write up a short profile by answering some running related questions which were then posted on the club website. I took part and my profile was added to the site in June.
I’ve reached a milestone of blood donations, twenty times and I was given a lovely reward pin to commemorate it
