Results of the Cork BHAA 'Stride by the Tide' 4m...Tues 19th Apr 2011
A total of 173 turned out for this unique 4 mile beach race near Youghal in East Cork on what was a lovely sunny evening. This figure is about 60 down on last year's record number of 232 and is lower than the 2009 figure of 186 and 2008 figure of 185.
John any plans to preview the Bay Run ? My guess is that this is now the 4th biggest race after Ballycotton, Cork Marathon and Cork/Cobh. Expected number could be over 1,200. I also understand its AAI approved so more quality runners this year.
Regarding the Bay Run, I won't be previewing it. I have never run that race and doing up a preview from scratch (research/text/photos/editing/etc) could end up taking 2-3 hours.
I'll put up something for the Newmarket race as it's quicker to do.
