Hi All
On what was the worse morning for a long time 150 hardy runners showed up in Malahide castle for the Annual John Davis Run
Just under 200 entered the race with 80 or so showing up on the day to enter. The race was won in a great time of 16.31 by David Byrne with the first Woman Cindy Kelly home in a fantastic time of 18.55 (9th 0verall).
I would like to thank everyone who helped taking enteries and on the course mainly, Mags & Darragh Wallnutt, Sio, Judy, Geraldine,Johanna, Sarah Duffy, Mr Duffy, Jenny & Gerry. A special mention for all of Gavin Duffy's help. Not only did he have to put up with all my phone calls he also arranged the timing clock, Starbucks coffee, the biscuits & chocolate, fruit hampers, banana's and marked the course. He then got to race coming in 7th place! Without his help this race would not have been successful.
This is a race Piranha should continue and if fact Fingal Co Co & Malahide Parks would like to see expand or more of them. I am happy to organise again next year but with anything like this the more help you get the easier it is
On behalf of the charities and myself thank you for all the support.
Johnny W.
P.S. There are some more pics posted in the media gallery.

Well done to Alan and an unofficial well done to Macker
It was a pleasure pacing you Cindy.
ReplyDeleteWhy so unofficial Macker?
ReplyDeleteWhat was you actual time for the race? Did you go cheap and not pay?
ReplyDeleteFor the record- forgot my wallet... had a tenner... gave them that and ran the course anyway. Registration was 15 on the day!
