Note from the organisers...The AutoPower Rathgormack 5 mile road race will this year form the fourth and penultimate leg of the OutfieldSports.ie Three Counties Challenge. This five-race series has proved to be hugely popular with all runners this year. After very successful races in Faugheen, Portlaw and Carrick-on-Suir, the action will move to County Waterford and the picturesque village of Rathgormack on Friday, July 12th with the race starting at 7:30pm. Entry costs €10 and registration will take place at the Hiking Centre, Rathgormack, from 6pm. Alternatively, you can register online at http://www.runireland.com/ . This race has a full AAI permit and will be the ideal preparation for the final race in the series, the MorrisOil 10k in Piltown.
There will be prizes in all of the usual categories as well as team prizes for men and ladies. Prize-giving and refreshments will be at the Hiking Centre afterwards. Last year's men's race was won by Sandis Bralitis (West Waterford) in a time of 25:46 while Clonmel AC's Angela McCann took the ladies' race in 29:48. For further details contact Johnny (086-8483210) or Susan (087-2931430).
