Results & Photos of the Bere Island Midsummer Run...Sat 8th July 2017

The was no shortage of sunshine for this years Bere Island Midsummer Run in West Cork with a 5k and 10k on offer. Looking at the photos, a number of runners from St.Catherines AC, Midleton AC and the Wibbly Wobbly Wonders in Cork City made the long trip west. All of these visitors helped to boost the numbers and this year, the total was up 61% on 2016.

 It really is a magic spot and the Beara makes a lovely location for a weekend away. Add in the weekly 5k parkrun on Saturday morning and it's a good excuse for a trip.
