Perfect Day in Djouce

All this group finished just on the buzzer!

A perfect day for running in Djouce Woods with 82 turning out. Provisional results of the 26th Djouce Handicap below; winner was either Paul Mahon or Larry Stapleton or someone else (a crowd of about 10 correctly guessed their likely finishing time and just about made the buzzer; a bit confusing. All corrections very welcome!).
First women were Anna Heffernan and Maura Matthews, closely followed by  Tressan McCambridge. We had two exceptional runs from juniors - step forward Katie Flynn, out on her own in the junior 5km, and talented newcomer Alex Price who finished in around 42 minutes on the full course.
Our nominated charity was Wicklow Hospice, with Brendan collecting over €600.
Big thanks to helpers Vivian, Gavan, Caroline, Enda, Brendan, Martin F, Tom at the Glencormac Inn, and especially course marker/dismantler Gerry C. Thanks to everyone who donated prizes and to all of you who turned out and made it such a fun day. Here's to next year!
