21st Sept…Results of the Charleville Half-Marathon & Eagle takes silver in the Munster Championships

At least 28 Eagle AC members took part in the 2014 Charleville Half-Marathon on Sunday the 21st of September 2014. Organised by North Cork AC, this half has gained a well deserved reputation for being a fast course and several members recorded new personal bests for the half on it today.

The race also doubled up as the Munster Half-Marathon Championships. In the mens team event, the Eagle team finished in 4th place, just one point outside the medals.

It’s also important to note that while the first 3 are the medal winners, all the members of the team play a part. Those that were 4th, 5th, 6th and so on on the team help push the members of other clubs further back. It’s all about a combined team effort to help the club secure medals.
