Club Report – Sunday 24th June 2018
Obviously, the big news of the Harrier week is that the McCaffertys missed a 10@10. The appropriate authorities have been informed. But, as we await news of their fate, onto the running….

On the same evening, our vest in the west, Aidy Hughes, took on the An Creagan 5k Trail Run in 23:50.
The vest was donned a second time this week as Aidy also completed the St Mary’s Carland 5k today in 23:58.
Then on Thursday evening Matt Allen took part in the Grant Thornton Airport 5k, finishing in 21:17 and Joe Mathers took 5th place in the St Benedict’s College 5k in Randalstown in 20:14.
Not finding the Valley hill enough of a challenge, our female header-in-chief, Nuala “thought I’d only entered the half” Muldoon took on the South Armagh Twin Peaks marathon. As the name may subtly suggest, it is not flat. Nuala completed it in 5:26:03.

Our triathlon brethren were also out in the sun today, with Paul “the ton up” Skillen completing the Carrick Castle Sprint Triathlon in 1:30:47, Damien Cole in 1:31:08 and Frances Kane 1:43:14.
So last week it was Father’s Day but this week has been about brothers. Whether its Brooks, Skillen or Chemical. This one’s for you all.
Until next week, behave.
