First place finish for Michelle Finn of Leevale AC |
Conditions were almost perfect for this years Sonia O'Sullivan Cobh 10 mile road race with light winds and some hazy sunshine.
There were a total of 635 finishers which is down 20% on last year, a fairly significant drop. Possibly a sign of just how 10 miler there are now on the race calendar?

Some time time by the winner, must be fastest 10 mile time in Cork for a long time? Would have loved to have seen Aoife Cook, Lizzie Lee and Claire McCarthy in Womens race as well, add them to Michelle Finn, some race that would have been!
ReplyDeletesome times by both winners, very impressive run from Michelle Finn
ReplyDeleteGreat race, such a fantastic community atmosphere in Cobh. Fantastic to be a part of it and see Sonia at the prize-giving afterwards. What a legend and she is so down to earth.
ReplyDeleteThanks and well done to all the organisers.
What a fantastic race in a beautiful town. Feeling those hills in my legs today. Thanks to all involved. Very well organised and everyone was so helpful on the day.
