Heat of 25° was tough enough but add cloudless blazing sun and it felt twice that by the time the race kicked off at 3pm at Fitzwilliam Square in Dublin City Centre. This Marathon no easy feat, Mini or not!
Taking part in the race were some of our FAVE 'It' girls like Marianne O'Neill, Laura Toogood, Pippa O'Connor and, Glenda Gilson, pictured above in her workout finest looking fit!
The undoubted winners of the day were all the marvelous charities who benefited from the run like The Irish Cancer Society and the Irish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals as well as the Marie Keating foundation, for whom Glenda ran with Lorraine Keane, set up by Boyzone frontman Ronan Keating and his family after losing their mum to Breast Cancer. Coming in first in the Race was Rosemary Ryan of Limerick(below) who finished the race in just under 35 minutes! BA-NANAS!!
