The PwC Anthony Reidy Memorial 5k was a new race on the Cork BHAA calendar and it got a great turnout with 567 657 runners crossing the finish line. The fact that it was the first evening road race in Cork for 2022 and it was a lovely evening at the end of a sunny day probably helped as well.
Update 19th Apr 2022: The results have now been updated and there was 657 finishers! For a local BHAA race, this is an excellent number.
