Results of the Rising Sun 4 mile road race (Ballinhassig) - Easter Sunday, 23rd of March 2008.

Just 1 shy of 100 turned out for this 4 mile road race in Ballinhassig just South of Cork. It was a lovely morning..bright and sunny and the big hill to the North protected us from the worst of the breeze.

The race...

What a start! Uphill from the off. Even the guys out at the front seemed to be in agreement to jog to the top of the hill first, then start racing! Once it's out of the way though, it's not a bad course. Some drags but nothing too serious.

So on to the results...
