John Treacey 10 Mile race
On Sunday 5 members left the comfort zone of Wexford and travelled to Dungarvan in County Waterford to run the 32nd hosting of the John Treacy 10 mile race. A perfect day for running. Not too warm but considering its early February a nice dry and mild day was welcomed by athletes.
A very well organised event taking in the town at the start then venturing out onto quiter backroads before using the Cork road back towards the finish. Just over 2800 finished the race giving an indication of its popularity. A beautiful sight to see so many club vests on display. There was also a nice t shirt as a memento for everyone at the finish area. Well done to @westwaterfordathleticsac
Well done to the 5 lads Brian, Rob, Eamonn, Tadhg & Darren.
Club results:
Brian Smyth 1:07:49

Darren O'Grady 1:29:24
