Last Sunday 26th January saw the 23rd running of the John Treacy Dungarvan 10 road race organised by West Waterford AC. 10 members of St Catherines AC joined over 1600 runners including Olympic silver medalist and world cross country champion John Treacy at the start line on a day where conditions were cold, wet and windy. The skys opened for the first couple of miles with ice cold rain and hail hammering runners as they left the town. Thankfully conditions abated for the rest of the race with some sun helping to raise body temperatures. All of our runners made it back across the finish line with some great performances considering the conditions. Well done to all of our fit for life runners some of whom raced the 10 mile distance for the first time on the day. Thanks also to our neighbors West Waterford AC for organising a great race despite the weather conditions. Looking forward to coming back again in 2015.
John and Mike delighted with new PBs at the finish line
