News items...Dungarvan 10 nearly full, Interview with Fionnuala Britton and legal costs for Athletics Ireland

Dungarvan 10 entries to close soon...By the end of last Friday (16th Dec) and the close of the 15 euro early bird entry fee, the John Treacy Dungarvan 10 mile road race had over 1,200 entered. This is well over double the numbers at the same period in 2010 when they had less that 500. Considering that there are less than 300 entries left at that stage, it is very likely that it will close in a few days time and certainly well before January 16th closing date.

It now costs €20 to enter which is still pretty good value considering that the it includes a dry-fit running top. This is a well run race over a fast 10 mile course. If you are considering it then enter straight away. The race website is HERE

(Update....23rd Dec 2011....There are now just 150 entries left)

Interview with Fionnuala Britton....The Irish Independent has an long in depth interview with Fionnula Britton after her recent win at the European Cross Country Championships. Click HERE
