Mayo AC @ Swinford 3/4 marathon, 10k, 5k results

September 5, 2026

Mayo AC runners had a brilliant showing on Saturday, with twenty one members in total competing in the ¾ marathon, 10k, and 5k events hosted by Swinford AC (September 5).

Several athletes in the ¾ marathon used this race as a stepping stone to prepare for the upcoming Dublin City Marathon, which is just 50 days away.

The racing conditions were quite favourable—overcast and dry. For context the ¾ marathon covers approximately 31.7 kilometres or 19.6 miles.

In each event Swinford AC awarded prizes to the first three men and women overall, and first man and woman o50.

 

Congratulations to four Mayo AC runners who won prizes: in the 10k Michelle Heneghan was first woman across the line 10k in 39:41, followed by Sarah Byrne in third – 41:47. Lorcan Murray was third overall in 36:39,  In the 5k Angela O’Connor was first F50 in 21:57.
