Youghal Athletic Club Latest News
Well done to the 52 Youghal AC athletes who made the short journey to Dungarvan for the ever-popular John Treacy 10m road race on Sunday morning. Conditions were pretty much ideal for the race with mild dry weather and there was a total of 2841 finishers.
Massive congratulations to Fearghal Curtin, who made the journey back from Portugal worthwhile with a pillar to post victory, winning the race in a course record 47:42, yes thatβs 47 minutes and 42 seconds for 10 miles, for us mere mortals . Well done to Fearghal and best of luck for upcoming races in Ibiza and Germany in the coming months.
Special mention to Sorcha Kilgannon, who was second junior female . Well done to Barry Ring, Peadar Carty, Susan Oβ Sullivan, Aidan Buckley and Marta Krakowska wearing the Youghal AC singlet for the first time and to those completing the 10-mile distance for the first time. PBβs for some of our members too - notably David Herlihy taking almost 90 seconds off his time from last year, Ian Murphy defying his aging legs and Anna & Krzysztof Pawlik, both coming back from recent injuries to run great racesβ¦

Weekend Round-Up 09/02/25
Well done to Fearghal Curtin who represented the club, county and country with aplomb at the 10km Ibiza-Platja dβen Bossa this afternoon in sunny Spain. In spite of his tiring schedule over the past week or so and 7 days on from his course record performance at the John Treacy 10 miler in Dungarvan, he put on a stellar performance to finish in third place in a time of 29:05. Plenty more to come from Fearghal weβre sure as he aims towards a couple of big races in the coming months πββοΈ
Also on foreign soil, although closer to home in Leeds, England, Avril Millerick put on a solid display at the Celtic International yesterday running in the womenβs Senior race against strong competition πββοΈ
