Last weekend I was pressganged into helping at the WMRA International Youth 
Cup held in Glendalough, Co. Wicklow. This mountain running event is held 
annually and this year IMRA - the Irish organisation - got to put it on. 
Incidentally, it was just around the corner from where Sonny Carter's 
daughter in exile lives. I was supposed to do the commentary but, thanks to 
a chest bug, managed to escape that and become one of the official 
photographers instead.

This picture, taken on a corner near the bottom of the descent (it was three 
laps of a fairly gruelling up & down course) shows the eventual winner 
Yehmanebehran Crippa (Italy) lying in second place behind Russia's 
Konstantin Galiullin with some of the pack in close attendance.
