Dublin 10 Mile Championship Success and Weekend Round Up

The Dublin 10 mile championship was incorporated in last week’s Frank Duffy race and there was a great result for our Masters Men Fergal Whitty, John Dunne and Niall Lynch who won the Masters team title – this team is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with and Fergal Whitty claimed the silver M35 spot also.  Terry Mee got another medal to follow on from his National Master success and won the M70 category.  Breda Mahony won bronze in the W35 category.

Noel Conway and Seán Fox were our representatives in the Tullamore Harriers Half Marathon where Noel ran in impressive 1:28:09 and Seán Fox finished 12th with 1:29:03.

On Saturday, the Phoenix Park became a sea of colour with a few thousand taking to the road for the Great Pink Run 5k and 10k races.  Bob Blake won the 5k event in 17.59.  Robert Cogan was 14th in the 10K with 38.54 and  although carrying an injury Anne Curley ran 39.42 finishing 3rd lady.

Over in the west, Joe Murphy was 5th in the Ballycastle 10k in 41.30 on a very hilly course and in windy conditions.

In Griffeen Park, Joan McTernan was again the first lady home in the Parkrun there.

Well done to all.
