Personal milestones set for parkrunners at popular Offaly venue
Mountlucas parkrun takes place at Bord na Móna Mountlucas windfarm every Saturday morning at 9.30am sharp
It was a beautiful, dry and sunny morning on Saturday for Mountlucas parkrun at the weekend. There were two milestones achieved at the event- Alan Reid completed his 100th parkrun and Ursula Mulhall completed her 50th parkrun.
Alan first completed a parkrun in 2021 and has been working hard to reach the 100 milestone since then.
Speaking to Alan after the event, he said: "All I’d say is, as tough as it can be, just keep going and you’ll get there!"
Well done Alan from all at Mountlucas parkrun.
Ursula's 50th parkrun milestone caught her by surprise as she hadn't realised she was about to reach this milestone.
Ursula is following in the footsteps of her mother Rita, who has completed a phenomenal 290 parkruns at Mountlucas parkrun, and her brother Matt who recently completed his 100th parkrun. Well done Ursula.
