Gorey Night Run

Thursday night saw some club members head to Gorey for the 10th hosting of the Gorey Night Run. A breezy evening but dry so runners were happy to avoid a rainy night as they joined close 1,000 people on the start line. The course travelled down Gorey Main Street then off to some residential areas before passing the Tesco Supermarket on the way to the finish line. A nice course around the town.

Congratulations to Martin who added another M70 win to his growing collection.

Dermot and Brian had a little battle around the route with only seconds between them.

A superbly organised race which attracted some top athletes to Gorey. Well done to all involved in the organising of it.
