Congratulations to Mary Sweeney on achieving her 200th parkrun this morning in Ballincollig, the Queen of road running in Cork and beyond . An amazing lady that travels the length and breath of the country to road races to represent both club and county for almost half a century.

| Mary & friends celebrate the 200th milestone |
She reminded us all of this day 40 years ago when she won the home countries cross country in Mullingar. Mary has completed at every distance from 5k right up the marathon. And thanks to the reintroduction of the Cork City Marathon in 2007 Mary got back on the Marathon shoes to bring her Marathon total to 53 marathons.
