Tipperary...Results of the Champion Kiely 5k - Fri 3rd July 2009

'Mr. Binman' Champion Kiely...........5k
A record entry of 208 runners gathered in the village of Ballyneale for the second race in this year's Outfield Sports/ Asics Three Counties Challenge. This race honours the Ballyneale-born Olympian, Tom Kiely, who won the gold medal for the Decathlon at the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis. The fast, flat course yielded many PB's, among them the race winner, Tony Fogarty (Thurles Crokes). A very close second was Dwayne Farrell (Tinryland AC) while David Ryan took third prize. The ladies' race was won by Madeline Loughnane (Thurles Crokes) in 17:46 with Corina Walsh (West Waterford) second in 18:00 and Angela McCann (Clonmel) third in 18:28 . This very popular series will next move to county Kilkenny for the Morris Oil Piltown 10k on Friday, July 17th. The race begins in Kildalton College, Piltown at 7:30pm.
