MTU Athletics Track Night #1 – 2021 (8th June)

At the first MTU Athletics Track Night at the Munster Technological University in Cork on Tuesday evening 8th June, Lorcan Mullen was the easy winner of his 5,000m race with a new PB of 16:23.60, a 6 second improvement on his previous best. It was a shame that the pace runner didn’t stay in the race for longer and that there was no one to run with for much of the race, so Lorcan had to do all the work himself at the front, but he battled on despite hurting over the final stages and was delighted with the win and PB and is confident there is better to come in the right race with better opposition to run against. Lorcan has his sights set on the National Juvenile T&F in August and this race in Cork was the latest building block along the way.
