In almost perfect weather conditions, Gary Thornton and Orla Ni Mhuircheartaigh capped off successful years by taking victory at this year's Fields of Athenry 10km.

Almost 700 participants took to the roads and streets of Athenry, in the 6th running of the race.

For the first time, a juvenille fun run around the streets of Athenry was also held.

Full report to follow.

Some photos here, with many, many more to follow over the next week or so.
