Carrowholly 5k (138 finishers, results www.coretiming.com) Well done to Colette Tuohy eighth overall and first woman home in 18:48. Race was won by Eamonn Staunton in 15:48. James Ryan was fifth in 17:05, Padraic McVann 10th 20:02, and John Geraghty 28th 22:09. We’re delighted to see Noreen McManamon W50 back in action after a long layoff – and an excellent 22:51 fourth woman. Newport based Noreen has been a formidable competitor for the club – a National medal winner both on road and cross country, and as part of our successful women’s teams.
