The race was very well organised with top class sandwiches and cakes after the race. Well done to all involved.
great race, nice flat course, well organised. The local crowds were fantastic. Real festival feel about it.
My first ever 5k. Went around in just over half an hr. I'm hooked now. Loved it!
They got the weather right this year (about time)!! :-) Great evening. Well organised, good course, great support and the spread afterwards would have fed the whole village. Definitely will be back next year and nice to see the number steadily increasing.
Great Race no complaints at all. well done to everyone involved.
Lovely race. Great to see all the kids too sprinting towards the finish line, wish I did the same back then.
Great race, cool women waiting at the finish line and lovely cakes to top it off. Thanks Cloyne.

John,unfortunatley I did not have someone to take photos for the blog on the night, however I did have a photographer attend that took photos for our local paper - The East Cork Journal and for our local magazine, the Midleton News. Both of the above are availabe in most supermarkets in Midleton. The number of the office that manages the above paper & magazine is 021/4630500 should anyone wish to purchase copies of the photos
