Forty-five hardy souls and the volunteers turned out to take part in the Letterkenny Parkrun yesterday morning.
Freezing temperatures accompanied by a chilly breeze made conditions difficult.
As the sun rose – the course, with a minor adjustment, was deemed safe.
Cathal Roarty Race Director, accompanied by other volunteers and some of the participants, ensured that the course was safe enough for the participants before the 5K kicked off.
Gareth Mc Cullagh was first, Aaron Nepgen (Letterkenny Parkrunners) was second and an unknown female was third (it is important to register for Parkrun so that results can be recorded).
Letterkenny Parkrun would like to give a special word of thanks to all who volunteered.
Letterkenny Parkrun is a free to enter 5k for walkers, joggers, runners and is held every Saturday in St Conal’s Complex/Letterkenny Town Park at 9.30 am sharp.
It is also free to register so what is holding you back? A friendly welcome awaits you.
