MORE THAN 300 runners, joggers and walkers took to the start line of todays St. Johnston 5K, the first in the Dalys XL Spring 3 Race Series organised by Lifford AC.
While a cold wind blew along the Foyle river, with rain also making it difficult for athletes, there was still a great buzz around, with athletes travelling far and wide to take part.
The first man home was Omagh Harriers’ athlete Paul Barbour in a time of 16.28, followed by Martin Cox from Project Africa Athletics in second in 16.58, with a close finish for third, Derry City Track Club athlete Matt Doherty holding off City of Derry athlete Mark Mullan in 17.20.
In the Ladies race, Lifford AC athlete Claire McGuigan continued her fine early season form with a victory in a time of 19.04, with Finn Valley’s Kathleen McNulty second in 20.21 and Derry City Track Club athlete Hannah McGowan third in 20.41.
Lifford Athletic Club wishes to thank everyone who helped out, from the stewards to those who made sandwiches/refreshments, Pat Carlin for First Aid and to Mary Crossan and the St Johnston Family Resource Centre for the use of their fine premises. Also thanks to Latta Fuels Shop and Filling Station & Diner for the use of their forecourt – their patience for the running of our events is always appreciated.
Finally, thanks to all the athletes and to the clubs for supporting the Series.
The next race in the Series will take place in Raphoe on Sunday 25th January with a start time of 10.00am. With such huge numbers taking part on a cold and wet morning in St. Johnston, bigger numbers can be expected by the time the next race rolls into the market town of Raphoe.
