Thanks to all who attended our fourth annual 5K Road Race on Tuesday 21st August in Carraig na bhFear. It was a warm and humid evening for running but the crowds turned out in record numbers to support the event.
The overall winner in the mens category was Eric Curran, who clocked a fantastic time of 16:10 around the course. In second place was last years winner, John Meade, the Whites Cross legend coming home in a time of 16:23, maith thú a Sheáin! He was followed home in third place by Kieran McKeown in a time of 16:52. Well done lads, mighty running!
In the ladies, Karina Murphy took top honours, in a time of 19:55. Second place went to Sharon Rynne, who finished with a great run of 20:04. In third place was local teacher Claire O’Brien, who finished in a fantastic time of 20:39. Congratulations ladies!
Well done to all who participated. We hope to see you all back again in 2019 when we hope to host the race again for it’s fifth edition. If you have any feedback, good or bad, please do contact us, either via the website, our facebook page, or in person. We want to continue to build on this and make it as good an event as it can possibly be, so we are all ears!
Many thanks to the large number of stewards who manned the course on the night, it was a great team effort to ensure that everything went off without a hitch. Special thanks to Noreen Murphy for her expertise in helping to organise the event, Carraig na bhFear Athletics Club for their support and participation, great to see ye there in such numbers!
Thanks also to Conor Hegarty for his time and effort and last but by no means least, Nicky Pike. This whole event was Nickys brain child back in 2015, each year it has grown significantly into a great community event for all of the people in the parish and from much further afield too. The time and effort he has put into it had to be seen to be believed. Well done Nicky, you truly are an inspiration!…not a bad time in the race itself either boy!
