Matt Glennon and Paddy Kelly
were our sole representatives in the Senior men’s 10,000m race where Matt finished well overall, particularly compared
to other master athletes in the race. Unfortunately Paddy was forced to withdraw half-way with stomach problems but will have
gained valuable experience from the outing.
As an aside, it was great to hear
the race commentator pay tribute to Martin Fagan’s success in Dubai and remind everyone that Martin was a regular participant in Leinster
competitions in Tinryland over the years.
