Tipperary...Results of the Champion Kiely 5k Ballyneale - Fri 2 July 2010

Race two of the Outfield Sports Three Counties Challenge was a great success.

If I heard correctly, this was the seventh running of this Champion Kiely Ballyneale 5k race, and numbers have increased from 54 in the first race, to almost 190 this year.

Colbert Chip Timing was used in the race.

Tipperary...Preview of the Champion Kiely 5k Ballyneale - Fri 2 July 2010

The second race of the Outfield Sports Three Counties Challenge is the the Champion Kiely Ballyneale 5k at 7:30pm.

Ballyneale is a little west of Carrick-on-Suir, just off the R696, which is between the N24, N76.
Organized by Carrick-on-Suir AC.

A word from Mark Connolly at the organizers :-

The village of Ballyneale, just outside Carrick-on-Suir, will be the venue on Friday next , July 2nd, for this year's 'Champion Kiely' 5km road race. The race, which is the second of four races in the Outfield Sports Three Counties Challenge, gets underway at 7:30pm. The very fast, flat course offers a great opportunity for a personal best time. The entry fee is €10 and chip timing will be used. There will be prizes in all the usual categories as well as spot prizes. Registration and parking facilities will be available at Ballyneale GAA Grounds from 6pm.
With 191 runners taking part in the first race of this series, the Deadman's 5, there is expeced to be a very big field for Friday's race.

The 'Champion Kiely' honours the great Olympian, Tom Kiely, who was born at Curraghdobbin, Ballyneale in 1869. It was in the 'All-Round' event, the equivalent of the modernday Decathlon, that Tom excelled. Tom resisted offers from the American and British teams and paid his own fare to the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis, Missouri to represent his native country.
In those days all ten events in the competition were held on the same day. Conditions on July 4th, 1904 were atrocious but Tom accumulated over 6000 points to become Olympic Champion. A beautiful memorial to Tom was erected in 1978, opposite Ballyneale Church. Fittingly,Friday's race will pass close by this memorial on the weekend of the 106th anniversary of Tom Kiely's great victory.

Waterford...Results of the Dromana 5 - Fri 25 Jun 2010

Runners passing through the magnificent Dromana Arch and Bridge.

There was a record entry of 208 runners for the 18th Dungarvan Leader Dromana 5 held on Friday night. The full results are now up on the West Waterford AC site. This was the seventh race in the Ger Wyley Sports Summer Series 2010 and also the last chance to enter the series.

A new Ladies course record was set by Pauline Lambe in 29:20.
The men's race was won by Philip Harty, who has just qualified for the Irish team for the European mountain running championships to be held in Bulgaria.
The men's record is still held by John Treacy.

The entry fee was €10, and thisincluded a bus which was provided to transport runners from Cappoquin GAA grounds to the start at Villierstown.
It was a very humid evening, and more than a few flies and midget than usual!

The signposted distance from Villerstown to Cappoquin was 4.75 miles, so the race started out the other side of the town, on the road down to Villierstown Quay.
Although the race was run entirely in daylight hours, we were soon into the the dim light of the tree lined roads of Dromana Woods. It was a bit unusual, to be running, with cars passing from behind with their headlights on. At the far side, there was a good view ahead, which showed the slower runners, how far ahead the elite runners were.
As runners were arriving in Cappoquin, the local festival was taking place, including music, dancing, and boxing exhibitions.

There were some well appreciated refreshments afterwards at The Central Bar, Cappoquin, including a Birthday Cake for the young lady presenting the prizes!

Waterford...Results of the Ras Na Rinne 6 - Fri 18 Jun 2010

Michael Dunford, 1st O/40 and Raivis Zakis overall winner.

The 18th annual Mooney's Pub Ras Na Rinne was run in excellent conditions on Friday.
This was the sixth race in the Ger Wyley Sports Summer Series 2010.

Not having done this race before, this was a bit tougher than I had imagined, but very enjoyable.

There was a display outside Ionad Pobail Na Rinne, showing those who had completed all five previous races in this 2010 series, and rankings of those who had entered the series.
If you have not yet entered the series, your last chance is at next week's Dromana 5. Cost €7.

The race started on a downhill section, beside the Garda Station. After less than half a mile, it became particularly steep. At the beach, you had to use stepping stones to cross the stream to reach the sandy area, heading east. The tide was out -- miles out. Runners appeared to spread out in a wide arc. It was difficult to choose which path to follow. The area above the high-tide mark was dry, but had large stones. The area nearer the water was still wet, with ripples in the sand. The area between the two was reasonably dry but loose sand, covered with seashells.
In any case, you had to run out to very end of this sand bar, and loop around a Blue and White checkered flag. The return path was along sand dunes, where the path was as narrow as one foot, but widening to a tractor path eventually. There was a water station at perhaps 4 miles, run by up to 10 local children. At the end of the sand dunes, you had to cross that stream again, and then begin that slow climb up to the finish line.
It was still 18C when I got back to my car at maybe 9pm.
This, in my opinion, was one of the toughest races so far in the series.

Thanks to Geraldine Lynch for the above results.

I have uploaded the route to MapMyRun. Note, there is an overlap, in the section marked "St Nicholas Park", which you pass along just before 1 Mile, and again just before the end.
The first mile is along the west along the main street, and then east past the schools.
You turn north at 1 Mile, and go over a level crossing -- I hope somebody's watching the Train Timetables ;o). It's mostly uphill from Mile 1 to 3, and the road is rather narrow from 2 to 3. Finally 3 to 5 is mostly downhill, with a sharp turn as you turn left under the railway bridge.

This was the first race in the Outfield Sports Three Counties Challenge.

The next race in this series is the The Champion Kiely Ballyneale 5k, on Friday 2nd July 2010 at 7.30pm.

Also Race 6 in Ger Wyley Sports Nike summer series will be the 18th Annual Mooney's Pub Ras Na Rinne 6 miler next Friday, June 18 at 8pm.

There were a few flyers circulating, which I've scanned :-

• Clogheen Festival 5k
  
• Woodstown 5
• Boston Scientific Half-Marathon & 5k
• M9 Motorway Half-Marathon
