Damien Finnegan on his way to 20:10 finish in Castlebar 5k
A couple of updates from two of the forty members who completed the Castlebar 5k on Tuesday evening.
Damien Finnegan finished in 20:10 – probably one of a number PBs on the night). Last month he ran a PB in the Westport Half Marathon 1:31.43 knocking seven minutes off his 1:38.19 in the Kinvara Half in March. Damien has improved his times dramatically over the past year, running a number of pbs over a range of distances from 5k to marathon.
David Dinsmore also ran the Castlebar 5k, finishing in a great time 21:43 .
On March 26 last he competed in the Trail de Collioure 8k (Pyrénées-Orientales, France) finishing 20th of 142 runners and 1st V6 in 44:17.
“The race started on the seafront of the picturesque town of Collioure, took us past the castle, over the beach then up into the vineyards for about 6km before descending steeply to the finish back at the seafront. There was also an 18km race”.

Great running by these racers – congratulations to both!
