I came, I saw, I slipped on my rear end.

Joe Canning, Alison Canavan, Simon Zebo, Tom Doherty, Annalise Murphy and Eoin Larkin lined up for the Wings for Life World Run, in Dun Laoghaire, on Sunday.

While the men’s and women’s races were, respectively, won by David Sheehy and Orna Dilworth, the sporting stars had the honour of leading out the competitors.

Here are the best of the pictures. Keep an eye out for the cheerful lad, in his trousers, on the right-hand side on the right-hand side of this GIF:

We think we spotted a Zebo bum pinch in that clip too.

Our money is on Zebo…
