Fine Run From Neil in Edinburgh Half Marathon

Neil Wiktorski ran a fine race in the Edinburgh Half Marathon today, 25th May, he clocked 72mins 55seconds to take a very creditable 9th place. Unfortunately weather conditions were very poor, with torrential rain and a very strong head wind throughout the race. Edinburgh is not an out and back course, it's one direction only, and unfortunately the rain and wind was into the runners faces for all of the 13.1mls. Still another great performance by Neil, which argues well for the rest of the season.

The Sunbeam House, Arklow 10k was also held today. Bernard Quinn ran 44.10, over a very tough course, to take 1st place in the O/60 category.
