Report from the organisers Carrick Road Runners AC...The men's race was won in convincing style by Clonliffe Harriers' Sergiu Ciobanu who is no doubt looking forward to representing his native Moldova in the upcoming World Athletics Championships. Ravis Zakis (West Waterford AC) put in a fantastic effort to break the 32-minute barrier and take second prize. Ravis was also the winner of the overall series for the best placing in any four of the five races. Niall Sheil(St. Killian's) was third with a time of 33:00.

The ladies' race was fiercely contested with three runners moving clear of the field in the early stages. This group remained together for much of the race but it was Martina O' Dwyer (Carrick AC) who proved strongest over the final mile and claimed an impressive victory with a personal best time of 37:47. Angela McCann (Clonmel AC) took second place in 38:08 and Jackie Carthy (Kilmore AC) was third in 38:43. 

Carrick AC would like to thank all who helped in the organisation and running of this year's race. We are especially grateful for the continued generous sponsorship of MorrisOil, Fiddown over the past six years. Thanks also to Outfield Sports, Carrick-on-Suir, for the overall series sponsorship and to Iverk Produce, Piltown, for contributing to the goody bag for all participants . As always, Carrick-on-Suir Red Cross were on hand to ensure medical assistance was available when needed. We would also like to thank Piltown GAA Club and Kildalton Horticultural College for the use of their facilities and grounds.

Carrick AC's hard-working committee will enjoy a short break now before commencing the annual one-mile Autumn Challenge in a few weeks' time.

Tipperary...Results of the Clogheen 5 km road race - Thurs 1st Aug 2013

This years Clogheen 5 km road race in Tipperary attracted a large field of 152 entrants despite the damp conditions.

Race report from the organisers Clonmel AC...
The Clogheen 5k road race attracted a brilliant entry of 152 athletes despite the very bad weather before and during the race. Over the years this race has grown in stature and a testament of its popularity is that this year's entries were the 2nd highest even despite the bad weather and the number of other races in the vicinity. There was a minute silence in respect of Joe Grinsell who died so sudden recently.

The race started and despite the bad weather competition was very keen with David Ryan of Clonmel and the eventual winner Tony Fogarty of Thurles Crokes matching stride for stride all the way around the route. They were still together as they entered the village and in a hectic battle for the line Tony Fogarty went clear to win a great race. Great to see Tony back competing very well again and this win will surely spur him on to more wins. Then we had Patrick Hughes of Thurles 3rd with Stewart Moloney of Moore Abbey Milers 4th and Shane Mullaney of Thurles Crokes 5th. 

In the Ladies race Dymphna Ryan of Dundrum went clear in the early stages to come home a very worthy winner from Claire Anna of Carrick on Suir and Angela McCann of Clonmel.

Results of the Run Killarney Marathon...Sat 20th July 2013

In terms of scenery, conditions were perfect for the Run Killarney Marathon which was held on Saturday, the 20th of July. From the high point at Molls Gap, some of the highest mountains in Ireland were clearly visible and made for a great backdrop on the way down to Killarney itself.

From a running point of view, the temperature which later climbed into the mid 20's made conditions tough for many. A problem with the delivery of enough water to the stations on the Half-Marathon route meant that those who were running about 1:55 or slower had no water available to them. As a result, hydration and staying cool was an issue. This was of course important for the Marathon runners as well early on although they did have enough in the second half even if the gaps for it were a bit long in sections.

211 took part in the full Marathon...

Race report from Clonmel AC...Michael Harty and Dymphna Ryan win in Clerihan
The inaugural Clerihan 5 Mile road race took place in Mediterranean conditions last Friday night attracting 252 entrants, many from the local community, which was brilliant to see. There was a brilliant atmosphere and buzz in the village for the whole event with the whole community coming out and supporting. 

The race was won by Michael Harty of East Cork AC who went into the lead right from the start and came home a very convincing winner in 25 mins 59 secs. Then we had Brian Murphy of Carrick on Suir 2nd in 26 mins 22 secs with Harry Lupton of Portlaoise 3rd in 27 mins. 

Dymphna Ryan of Dundrum won the Ladies race in 29 mins 58 secs with Angela McCann of Clonmel 2nd in 30 mins 29 secs and Orlaith Moynihan of Clonmel 3rd in 32 mins 45 secs. Dymphna was also the first recipient of the Laura Taylor Memorial Shield, presented to her by Donna Nagle, of Clonmel A C, to the first women finisher from a County Tipperary Club, in honour of Laura Taylor who died tragically last year. Dymphna was also presented with a Special framed photo of Camelot signed by Aidan and Joseph O Brien of Ballydoyle where Laura worked for many years.

This was a great community effort and the Club would like to thank everyone who helped to make this event such a success. The Post Race refreshments were greatly appreciated by everyone and the two water stations on the course were also very much appreciated by everyone.
