Togher AC 5K – 27th December

Great to see the always popular, Togher AC 5k race take place last Monday in Cork City. 

The race had a field of nearly 500 runners and some excellent times were recorded by Eagle AC members, as can be seen from the results below. 

Ken Ince and Paul Cotter led the club home with 13th and 14th place finishes respectively. The guys have had some brilliant results recently and this race proved to be no different! 

Aoife Mahony was the first Eagle lady home with an excellent time of 18.46. Catherine Murphy finished not far behind with an equally impressive 19.08 run. 

No club names are listed in the results so please send us a message if we have missed any members. 

Well done to all!
