Manchester Done and Dusted and All Very Happy
Our two Manchester Marathoners hit the roads on Sunday morning and did what was asked of them. Ger O'Regan who was carrying an injury going into the race managed to finish in the fine time of 3.16.24.
Whilst Mark Cronin was going for a PB and its great to report that all the hard work he has been putting in has started to pay dividends and he got his PB coming home in a super time of 3.20.48
Well done guys and looking forward to hearing all the details tomorrow evening.
Great Railway Run
The Great Railway Run 25km race from Cork to Carrigaline was held on Sunday morning There were three hundred and ninety one finishers. We had some from the club there as expected. Tony Murray had a fine run coming in 1.54.04. Susan Fitzgerald and Amanda Cooney had good runs also. It hard to tell from the results who ran as clubs unfortunately are not listed. So anyone else please let me know.
A Few Photos From Our International Crew
BHAA PWC 5Km
Wedensday evening saw the PWC 5KM take place in the
City around Kennedy Park circuit. There was a huge crowd there despite the very
windy conditions. It was held in aid of Simon and there was a lot of walkers.
We had a good crew there and Vicki Spiteri was our
prizewinner coming 3rd in her o/35 cat and scoring on the HSE team
as well. Others who ran from the club were Paul Spiteri, John Cashman, Joe
Power, Wayne Elms, Maurice Ring, Dan Twohig,Michael Beirne and Ian Kohler
Apologies for missing anyone (please let me know) as there is a huge list. One
thing to watch for in some of these races is that the start time is the same start
time for everyone and the chip only clicks in when you cross the finish line.
International Once Again
Best of luck and safe travels to Derek Aherne who is
running the Boston Marathon on Monday. Note I said "running not racing".
Best of luck also to our Captain Ger O’Regan and Mark
Cronin who are racing the marathon in Manchester on Sunday. We will be tracking
ye guys.
