Banna 5k & 10k 2024 (4th Aug)

Even though they were on holidays in Banna, Co. Kerry, that didn’t stop some of the Glennon family using the opportunity to compete in the St. Brendan’s AC Banna 5k & 10k road races on Sunday morning 4th August. Susan Glennon opted for the longer 10k distance, a race that attracted nearly 180 runners to the start line of a nice relatively flat route. Taking full advantage of having a few men of similar standard to run with and to pace off, Susan was very happy to finish well up in tenth place overall in 39:52, the 1st woman to finish with a comfortable margin. Also using their time in Kerry well, Gareth Glennon and Daniel Glennon ran in the shorter 5k race, a smaller event that attracted just under 100 entrants, where Gareth finished a fine 7th place in 19:22, followed by Daniel in 12th with 20:35.
