The crowds gathered in tremendous numbers for the third annual Carraig na bhFear GAA 5k Race on Wednesday evening 9th August. Conditions were ideal and after some heavy rain in the week leading up to the race it was great to see the sun out once again for the race. In the end over 275 participants took part in the event, a fantastic turnout and up on the numbers from last year once again. For this, we want to say a huge thank you to all of our runners,joggers and walkers, without you the race could not be a success and we sincerely hope you had an enjoyable evening.
Thanks to Nicky Pike for his organisational skills, it was a fantastic effort from Nicky and his crew ensured everything went off successfully. Míle buíochas to Pauline and her crew for the teas, coffees, sandwiches and delicious cakes, we may need to run another 5K after all of the goodies! Finally, many thanks to Noreen Murphy and all in Carraig na bhFear Athletic Club for their great support, which is vital to the running of the race.
