DUNE Half Marathon

On Sunday 16th March was the first event in the Pure Running Half Marathon Series. The second occasion of this race saw a reversal of the route, starting at Newry city centre and finishing in Dundalk centre. The first few miles saw a fairly steep ascent out of the city followed by fairly level dual carriageway across the border.

OAC athletes got off to a flying start to the series in the event. Darren Moffett scored a well earned PB with a time of 1h38m48s. Paul Cordner did a great job pacing for friend Dermot Fisher with a time of 2h00m03s. Paul Edgar started the series as he means to go on with a great time of 2h02m40s.

All eyes on Larne for number 2 in the HM series and a superb event that will have a strong club presence.
