Results of the 5k parkruns around the county on Saturday 23rd Dec 2023. Approximately 1009 runners and walkers took part in the 10 events in Co Cork.
Report... Conditions were pretty much perfect for this weeks 5k parkruns in Co Cork with the thermometer reading 9 deg at Cork Airport and dry weather. There was a brisk westerly breeze which probably made things feel a bit cooler than they actually were but a big improvement on the cold snap a few weeks ago. The milder weather seems to have brought out a lot more runners this week.
It's also worth noting that the number of participants in the 10 parkruns in Cork broke the 1000 mark this week! The last time it went over 1000 was back on the 29th of July 2023.
Ballincollig... Well done to Siobhan Holland who reached the 100 mark at the Ballincollig 5k parkrun this morning! 74 of the 100 parkruns were at the Ballincollig event with 9 in Macroom and 6 in Tramore Valley Park. The remaining 11 were at parkruns around Cork and Kerry. Siobhan's first 5k parkrun was in Clonakilty back on the 4th of Oct 2014.
Well done to Mick O'Callaghan who also hit the 100 mark in Ballincollig. Mick has completed 89 of the 100 parkruns in Ballincollig with 6 at Tramore Valley and the balance spread across 4 other events. Mick's first 5k parkrun was in Ballincollig back on the 8th of Jun 2019.
Well done to Seán O'Brien who completed his 200th 5k parkrun! 152 of those were at Ballincollig.
Glen River... Another runner hitting the 100 mark this week was Julie O'Leary. Julie has completed 5k parkruns at 35 different locations with the largest number (38) at the Glen River. Julie's first 5k parkrun was in Ballincollig back on the 29th of Apr 2017.
Glengarriff... Down in west Cork, local runner Ruth Oliver completed her 100th parkrun! Ruth hasn't ventured too far for the parkruns with all 100 in Glengarriff. Ruth's first 5k parkrun in Glengarriff was on the 9th of January 2016.
If I missed anyone who passed a notable milestone like 100, 200, 250 or above parkruns then let me know.
