What time is it over there in Ireland?
We're 5 hours ahead of ET, 8 ahead of PT. I don't know what time zone I have my profile set to so I don't know what time I sent that, but it is 4 PM in Ireland right now.

I do know I sent that after we got back from a pub and before we went to a pub.

Lol awesome. I remember the pubs in Dublin mostly carrying Guinness and Guinness Extra Cold. On the west side Murphys was more popular - is it still that way?

The bartender at the first pub was saying that an American came in and ordered a Murphy's and said "Hmm. This is what Guinness tastes like at home. I won't be having that." Said they're a tourist bar and as soon as tourist season ends (probably quite soon) they'll stop ordering Murphy's until the spring. 

I was drinking a local brewery's stuff there, at the second pub I did have a Guinness. I can confirm Guinness does, indeed, taste better here.

Flubbed my 11 miles today. Took off too fast with a group of better runners. Just out of gas down the stretch. 

Had a breakfast burrito after. Now gotta rush through stretching (not going well) and get it the Badger bar.

Definitely going to hit up something for lunch. Starting to feel like a good Italian sandwich. Unfortunately, the place down the street doesn't open up until 4. 
Really? On game day no less evidently they don't need the business.You're in C-Bus proper right?

Interesting, I'm not sure I know many people who have even heard of Murphy's. I remember liking it better back in the day, but it's been a while since I had either.

It's just a little carry out pizza place. In any event, I landed on a new Mediterranean place that is really good. Shawarma it is

Awful to see that for NC State’s McCall.

Unplanned actually. Weather was too bad to drive the Ring of Kerry route which we planned to do. 

Going to Guinness & Jameson will come later in the trip when we get to Dublin.

I'm hoping to find Beamish (which i haven't seen in the US in years and Kilkenny (which I've only seen in Canada) at some point.

Gorgeous day here in NW WY.  Heading off the grid,  hope A&M keeps it up vs Missou.

Text from my wife back home says she saw a drug deal go down this morning outside the neighborhood car wash.  Lol.
