Results of the Millstreet 5-mile road race - Fri 1st July 2022

There was a good turnout for this year's Willie Neenan Memorial 5-mile road race in Millstreet with 208 runners cross the finish line. This is only down a fraction on the 214 back in 2019.

Many if not most of the road races at the moment are suffering a big drop in numbers and it's nice to see one at least bucking the trend.
