Bob Heffernan 5K 2019

There was a great turnout of Bray Runners at the Bob Heffernan 5k on 21st May. Excellent times and some fantastic Pbs were recorded. We also took home a couple of prizes, in what is one of the most competitive 5ks around. Ian McGrath finished in 13th place overall and was 1st 0/45 in an excellent 15.58. A fine run also from Paul O'Brien, who ran 16.53. Paul Allen broke the 17mimute mark for the first time running a new Pb of 16.56. Garrett Kelly was another to run a new Pb, dipping under 18minutes for the first time, Garrett ran 17.57. Great to see Bill Stanley back racing again, and running a fine 19.50. John Ashworth ran 21.10, Richard Kavanagh ran 21.23 and Tom Cavanagh ran 21.50. Siobhan Butler ran a season best of 21.43 and was 5th in her age category, Jean O'Kennedy ran 21.50, her fastest 5k in almost 2 years and was 2nd in her age Category.
