Moynalty 4 Mile 2024 (1st Apr)

The annual Easter Monday (1st Apr) Moynalty 4 Mile road race was held this year in dry but windy conditions. Starting in the grounds of Moynalty Threshing field, the race is a 4 mile loop along the quiet country scenic roads that surround Moynalty before returning to the Threshing Field for the finish. As in the Mullingar Half Marathon, Andrew Nevin was the only athlete in the field of 300 runners to give chase to Peter Somba. The Kenyan native again proved too strong for the Mullingar man along some testing hills on the looped course, coming home first 33 seconds ahead of Andrew who was satisfied with his performance and a time of 21 minutes 15 seconds. Also making the trip to the Royal County on the day from Mullingar Harriers we had Enda O’Carolan finishing strongly in seventh place with a time of 23:37 and Padraig Beglin who is just back training after an extended lay off was satisfied with his run, finishing in 26:16 [MO’S].
