Runways Dublin Duathlon Series.

A Cracking evening in the Phoenix park for the first in the Runways Dublin Duathlon Series.

A great race had by all in perfect conditions.

A great run by Kevin English of Runways in Parnell street who came home first in the first leg of the run.

But the speed of the cyclists caught him and he finished in a respectable 20th.

Must give it a try myself for the next one. ;)

Thanks to everyone who came over to the Pearl Izumi tent. Run Like an Animal.

Message from the Ambulance Service:

We all carry our mobile phones with names & numbers stored in its memory. If we were to be involved in an accident or were taken ill, the people attending us would have our mobile phone but wouldn't know who to call.
Yes, there are hundreds of numbers stored but which one is the contact person in case of an emergency?

Hence this 'ICE' (In Case of Emergency) Campaign.

The concept of 'ICE' is catching on quickly. It is a method of contact during emergency situations. As mobile phones are carried by the majority of the population, all you need to do is store the number of a contact person or persons who should be contacted during emergency under the name 'ICE' ( In Case Of Emergency).
The idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he went to the scenes of accidents there were always mobile phones with patients but they didn't know which number to call.
He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if there was a nationally recognised name for this purpose
In an emergency situation, Emergency Service personnel and hospital Staff would be able to quickly contact the right person by simply dialling the number you have stored as 'ICE'.

Please forward this. It won't take too many 'forwards' before everybody will know about this.

It really could save your life, or put a loved one's mind at rest

For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc
