Letterkenny Triathlon: Full round-up and results from Newmills 10k – pic special

written by Stephen Maguire October 16, 2019
FacebookTweetLinkedInPrint

The annual Newmills 10k hosted by LAC took place in perfect weather conditions on Sunday morning. As always there was a large 247 contingent competing on the day.

Michael Black was the first club member to finish in a superb time of 34:28. Hot on his heels was Peter O’Donnell, just 17 seconds later in a fantastic 34:45, super time from Peter ahead of Dublin marathon in a few weeks’ time.

Brendan McBride was testing the legs after his recent Ironman debut and what a test it was- Brendan had a superb run to finish 2nd M50 in a brilliant 42:18.

Brian Gormley also had a very impressive run and looked comfortable throughout to finish in a fantastic 43:25.

Mickey Crossan was the next club member to cross the finish line, clocking a brilliant 44:09. Keith Fletcher’s long miles and training ahead of Dublin marathon are certainly paying off.

Keith clocked a super PB time of 44:23. Anne Robinson is just going from strength to strength this season and on Sunday she ran a very impressive 45:50 to finish on the podium as second female; just reward for her dedication to her training.

Not to be forgotten her partner in crime Karol Harvey once again PB’d- another one to add to the 2019 list. Karol ran a superb time of 46:23, knocking over 2 and a half minutes off his previous best.

There was also a PB for Eugene O’Donnell, who ran brilliantly to clock a time of 47:59. Terence Quinn, proudly wearing the 247 colours had a very impressive performance and ran a brilliant PB time of 48:27 PB.

Martina McDaid is heading for her 3rd Dublin Marathon on the trot and ran very well to finish in a time of 52:46. Patrick Patton has made some huge improvements in the running scene in 2019 and on Sunday he had another fine performance to cross the finish line in a brilliant 55:14.

Miami Half Marathon

Meanwhile, in Miami, club member found time on his honeymoon to take part in a half marathon in Miami. Paul had a fantastic run and finished in 1:41. Enjoy the rest of your break Paul!
