There were big numbers out in force for this years John Buckley Sports 5k in Cork City with 958 taking part. As can be seen from the chart above, that is the third year in a row that the numbers have increased.
One of the unique things about the numbers are just how many fast runners there were. A total of 221 finished under 20 minutes which is pretty amazing.

Hi I just looked at my result for the 5km . The result put up is wrong I finished around the 18.30 mark and it's saying 20.25 my number is 655
ReplyDeleteNew course is excellent. Thanks to organisers and volunteers.
ReplyDelete@Bib no. 655, your time shows, gun 18:30, net 18:18
ReplyDeleteA great race and very enjoyable. I loved the new route! My only gripe would be that I thought it was chip timed? The times shown on results are the times we crossed the finish Line....I finished over a minute faster than my published result. I tried to respect race etiquette by placing myself further down the field of runners and so Icross the start line later than the first runner.
ReplyDeleteAh, I see new results have been posted showing gun and net. Thank you!
ReplyDeletethe results don't seem to capture some runners who were on Temp Reg's. The top Five men's is incorrect.
