Coach Mary breaks another Irish record!
Coach and Vice Chair', Mary Slocum, broke the Irish record (for her age-category) in the half marathon distance at the Antrim Coast Half Marathon on the last Sunday of August, by OVER 6 MINUTES!
Earlier this year, Mary broke the Irish record in the marathon distance back in Belfast in May (3:14:05), and then beat her own time shortly afterwards in her home city of Cork (3:13:33). The certificate took some time in coming but it is now here and hopefully Mary has it framed and displayed proudly on her wall.
Congratulations Mary on a superb achievements!
