Fit4Life’s Jackie Brannigan at Connemarathon Half, Connemara, Sunday 10th April 2016

(Thanks to Jackie for the report)

My Connemara experience goes as follows….my work colleagues thought it would be a good idea to do a charity run and coaxed me into signing up for the Connemara 1/2 marathon telling me we would be running through one of the most spectacular scenic areas in Ireland albeit there would be a couple of hills – at the beginning and at the end! I checked the website brochure and concurred with the group – the scenary looked amazing and the pictures showed the sun shining and I heard quite a number of people were running it – so I signed up! After a little over 2hrs beating my way through a head wind and taking a non stop hammering from hail stones I FINISHED ;o) So if you fancy a challenge then this is the race for you!
