Hope you are all having a good week 🙂 First thing I have to say this week is apologise to Sandra Lynch AKA our national gold medal winner as in last week’s newsletter I gave the wrong result for her marathon time, I gave the gun time instead of chip time so Sandra’s correct finish time was 03:05:39 🙂 congrats again Sandra :).

Results

NYC Marathon 01st NovemberGlendalough Trail Run 31st October
Last Saturday we had 3 of our athletes run in the Glendalough Trail run which is 15.5km. All said it was a tough challenging course but with beautiful setting along the way. The day itself was amazingly mild and dry conditions. They would highly recommend it for next year as it was very well organised and a very friendly vibe J In total there was about 300+ participants Andy Hayes came 5th overall J well done Andy great job. Lisa Crossingham came out of retirement and did a super time of 01:43:00 ( I think she must have been doing some secret training J LOL) and our newbie Andrew Hanney also did a super time of 01:31:58 – awesome running Andrew!
