Noel McManus Memorial 5k & 10k 2019 (19th April)

Participants in the Noel McManus Memorial 5k and 10k on Good Friday morning 19th April enjoyed perfect very warm and sunny conditions and spectacular scenery as they wound their way around the rolling hills in the beautiful grounds of Lough Rynn Castle in Mohill, Co. Leitrim. Finishing the 5k in 22:06, Emer O’Hanlon placed eleventh overall of over 170 finishers to easily win her master category by a big margin. The longer 10k race attracted over 120 entrants and the best of the Mullingar group was the in-form Michelle Bohan, seventh overall and first woman in 42:16, followed by Joan Hickson (48:43) first in her master category, Michael O’Sullivan (51:17) first in his master category and Ann Hall (52:37) second in her master category, so all the Mullingar athletes took a prize home with them from Mohill!
