History of Cork Athletics book now on sale...

I had a post up a while back about the launch of the book Cork Champions Past And Present which covers the history of athletics in Cork from 1873 to 2012.

Someone asked me a question as to where this book can now be purchased?

I asked the author Liam Fleming of Bandon AC and he said that the book can be purchased at most bookshops in the county and also in John Buckley Sports (across from the opera house in Cork City).

It is also available from Liam himself (contact fleming.liam1@gmail.com) and it will be on sale at the Ballycotton 10 on Sunday, I presume at the race headquarters in the school.

The book costs €15.
