Results of the 5k parkruns around the county on Saturday 16th Dec 2023. Approximately 731 runners and walkers took part in the 10 events in Co Cork.
Report... The conditions were pretty mild for this weeks 5k parkrun in Co Cork with a temperature of about 10 deg C but that mild moist air coming in off the Atlantic resulted in dull and misty conditions. It was still perfect for running but it might have deterred some.
Ballincollig... Well done to Colette Ryan who completed her 300th 5k parkrun today! It takes at least two years to get to 100 so completing 300 is pretty special. I wonder if Collette has the most in Cork?
Colette has run in 14 different parkrun venues but a whopping 248 of them were in the Ballincollig Regional Park. Colette's first parkrun was at the Tramore Valley Park back on the 26th of September 2015.
Also well done to Eddy Higgins who reaches the 100 mark! Eddy has done 26 in Ballincollig, 19 at Tramore Valley Park and 17 at the Glen River with the balance at 25 other locations. Eddy's first parkrun was in Tralee back on the 25th of July 2015.
Another person hitting the 100 mark in Ballincollig was Garrett Whitford. Garrett has done 63 in Ballincollig with 31 at the Tramore Valley Park with the balance at four other locations. Garrett started in Ballincollig back on the 18th of January 2020.
Macroom... Well done to Matt Murphy who completed his 100th 5k parkrun! Matt who is in the M18-19 age category has done 98 of the 100 in Macroom with the remaining two in Killarney. Matt's first parkrun was back on the 1st of Feb 2020 when he would have been M15-16.
Clonakilty... Clonakilty is one of the smaller parkruns in Co Cork and this week, Sandra Walsh completed her 100th parkrun there. Sandra has done 53 at Clonakilty, 39 at Glen River and the balance of eight at five other locations. Sandra's first parkrun was in Clon on the 21st of June 2014.
If I missed anyone who passed a notable milestone like 100, 200, 250 or above parkruns then let me know.
