Mark passed the XC baton back to the usual bunch of suspects for the popular Stormont XC event. In the Men’s event our Young Guns (Go for it!) were Alex Davidson 33:01 (a good recovery from his morning Parkrun Drubbing) and Kevin Donnelly 33:21. In the ladies’ event were Suzanne Brennan 26:53 and Nuala Muldoon 27:35. Flying the junior flag loud and proud were Ryan McCready 4:35 and Joseph Eager 4:38
Running furthest afield this week was our Chairman Alan R Kerr who took part in the Torremolinos Half Marathon, finishing in 1:52. Well done sir, enjoy the rest of your training camp. Ian recommends hydration training.
Speaking of hydration issues. Ian Brennan. The End.
Until next week, behave.
