Rosses AC Notes
Another great performance by the ever improving Burtonport native Ciaran Mc Gonagle in Derry last weekend when he finished 2nd in the Derry Marathon 10 Mile in a fantastic time of 57:37.
There were a number of Rosses athletes also in action in the Ardara 10k on Sunday with some good performances.
All focus this weekend will be on the Northwest 10k where there are a large number of Roses athletes taking up the worthy challenge.
Please watch for the group location outside the community center on the day. Good luck to all.
Club Vests – Everybody is agreed that the club vests really stand out and it has been impressive to see the large number of club colours in races recently.
There has been enquiring for more vests and a batch has arrived. Club vests are available from Ita on 087 130 9536.
If you are a club member the vests cost 20 euro or 40 euro for non club members.
