Everything. As It Happens.
Why not call it the Limerick Women’s 8km Race. What exactly is a Mini Marathon.
Alliteration..?
Now if you had Rosanna and Georgia in little shorts, the pc brigade would still be be giving out. These fine men gave up their time to promote some sort of hybrid girl hobbling shoe and I for one applaud their efforts. The sooner the better girls can’t run away from them, the sooner some of them might find a woman.
The shoe has heels because ladies love heels and it’s pink because ladies love pink and there’s a flower because ladies love flowers. That’s funny!
This race really succeeds in patronising women, marathon-runners and particularly, women marathon-runners
+42km
No wonder no woman agreed to stand in for the photo op
They were too busy making the hang sangwidges for the reception afterwards.
‘In those shoes?
I don’t think so.’
Women’s Slightly Longer Walk and Natter.
Sort of explains the lack of women in the story above…
There are no ladies in Limerick
When is the men’s slightly long jog/walk “race” on?
Who comes up with this stuff! I mean, someone must have actually been paid to produce that logo and some other egit must have thought it was great!
It’s not a mini-“marathon”. It’s a pissy little 5 or 10k for the Sunday Independent osteoporosis love handles and bingo wings set.
Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
Needs more women, less pink, less ridiculous cardboard shoes and a dollop of common sense. I know a great mixed-gender yoga group based in Limerick that promote exercise as a coping mechanism for those with depression. These lasses and lads could have thrown some great shapes and made this a memorable and striking photo op rather than a study in the 1980s.
(No offense to anyone involved but a bit of visual imagination to engage and interest the viewer goes a long way lads – think about why you spend those few mins staring at the postcards with the great seacliff views)
