Niall Horan's hometown workout falls flat thanks to fans

One Direction star Niall Horan ran into trouble during a jog in his hometown over the weekend (09-10Nov13) as his exercise routine was continually interrupted by fans eager to meet their idol.

The pop stars have all returned home after months of touring around the globe, and Horan headed back to Mullingar, Ireland to catch up with family and friends.

He decided to brave the cold and rainy weather on Sunday (10Nov13) by taking to the streets for a run, but didn't manage to work up a sweat after he was repeatedly stopped by locals.

The singer happily posed for pictures and photos with fans before deciding to abandon his workout and return to his parents' house.
