Results of the Glanmire 4 mile road race - Wed 10th June 2015
There was a large turnout of 524 runners for this years Glanmire 4 mile road race on Wed 10th June 2015. That's up about 5% on the number last year.
What's probably more amazing is the fact that it was on at the same time as a Cork BHAA race in Carrigtwohill which is only about 7 miles away. It just goes to show the huge pool of runners out there locally to support these races.

I finished 31st and i'm showing up as a late entry.I registered at 6:30 filled out the registration form and still i come up as a late entry,i have friends who registered a lot late than me yet there names and time were ok
ReplyDeleteGreat race. Well setup and marshalled. Great to see so many volunteers out. In fairness the weather helped. The race is really well supported by the locals. It's fantastic to see so many younger runners out and if only a quarter of them were to keep up the running in to their later years Irish Teams could do really well. The hill in the middle of the race is some test..... Fair play to everybody involved.
ReplyDelete593 ran in 2013 and 612 in 2012. Just saying' :)
ReplyDeletePost updated. I forgot that it used to be a BHAA race. The numbers then were higher when it was the only race on that night. I'd guess that if it was the same again, the numbers might well be up at record levels.
ReplyDeleteA huge amount of stewards involved in ensuring race went smoothly. Great support from locals on the route. Well done all involved.
