5 Mile Stride & 3 Mile Fun Walk at Terrerath, New Ross, Saturday 29th July at 7pm hosted by United Striders Athletic Club. AAI Certified.After a wet and miserable morning of running, it was the best surprise (but no surprise really) to hear that Catherine Ronan won 3rd Female in the 3 Hour event at the Wexford Running Festival at Johnstown Castle hosted by Wexford Marathon Club.
Set on a loop of 1.3km, all competitors ran as far as they could for their time slot. Some were on a 24hour run! Catherine amazingly ran 33.8km. Huge congrats to Catherine for taking on a new challenge, no obstacles will ever get in her way. We're all delighted
Butlerstown 4 Mile last Friday evening- great results for husband and wife duo Alan and Beth O'Connor.
Alan was 6th home in a field of over 250 and claimed 1st O40 in 22 mins 24. This is a top race and always attracts a competitive field.
Beth had an equally competitive run of 28 mins 27 (7:06 mile avg). Keep up the hard work guys!
Congrats Pat Murray!
