With a record number of runners treading camber at the 2018 Dublin City Marathon, Moate Athlone Running Group, were well represented at the 39th version of the ever popular sporting occasion.
On a morning which was suitably conducive to running, with limited wind and autumnal sunshine keeping spirits high, the warmth and encouragement of supporters from the running group along the route was noticeable as the runners faced and overcame the challenge presented by the undulating 26.2 mile course.
As the finish line was crossed, with numerous personal best times attained, memories began to etch in the mind, positive thoughts which will forever remain engrained and be used as an affirmative base to achieve future running plans and dreams.
