Anne Ormsby of Fingallins won the second race in the Women's Meet and Train Winter League, held in dry but muddy conditions at Lucan.
On the first lap, a group including Anne, Kathleen O'Callaghan (Sportsworld) and Swords race winner Ailish McDermott of Clonliffe soon broke away. A second group was led by Louise Keogh of Blackrock and included Brona Snow (Fingallians), Ann Higgins (Sportsworld), Eileen Dalton (Sportsworld) and Mary Butler (Blackrock).
Apart entirely from the nasty little hill included on this course, the back straight proved tough going and on the second lap, Ormsby took up the running although O'Callaghan was sticking close and held on to win in 13 mins 13 secs.
Thanks to all at Lucan Harriers for their superb and efficient organisation annd to adidas for the spot prizes.
Next race is on a fast flat course at Irishtown on Sunday 4 February, hosted by Crusaders. A total of 72 ran in Lucan - let's get that figure up to 100 next time!
