Top Irish results for the 2018 Rotterdam Marathon
The 2018 Rotterdam Marathon was held last Sunday the 8th of April and almost 14,000 runners took part. This has a reputation of being a flat and fast marathon course and many Irish runners travel there to take part. In fact if you book the flights and accommodation well in advance, it can work out pretty reasonable.
These are the results for the top Irish runners....Men who broke 3 hours and Women who broke 3:30. Runners from Munster in Bold.
Also note that Gary Condon was 3rd M45 and Orla O'Rourke of Ballymore Cobh AC was 1st F50!

Considering the cold training conditions at home prior to the race it was a shock to the system to race in 20+ degrees. Well done to all - big contingent from Cork ran.
