County Intermediate Road Championships

The club made its first visit to Galbally on Sunday last for the County Intermediate Road Championships and came away with one set of team medals. 

Six ladies took part in the 4k event for Ladies and they were led home by Bridget Gleeson who finished very strongly for 7^th place in 17.13.  Just yards behind was Lorraine Healy who finished in 8^th place in 17.19.  Next home for the club was Patricia Ryan in 15^th in 18.19 and these three ladies combined to finish third in the team competition behind Thurles and Moreabbey Milers.  Leah McCormack was our next finisher in 17^th in 18.43 followed by Catherine Dunne 24^th in 20.46 and Liz Power 25^th in 20.49.  These three ladies finished sixth in the team competition.  Well done to all the ladies.

 The club also had a mens team in action with all four having very positive runs over the 8k course which tested the mettle of all involved.  Paddy Doyle in 18^th was first home in 32.08 with Patrick Bowe 29^th in 33.35 followed by Ray Power in 33^rd in 36.03 and Mark King 38^th in 41.44.  In the team competition the club finished 8^th overall.  Well done to all.
