In Pictures: Hundreds take part in sun-basked Run Armagh 5 & 10k races

Hundreds turned out for the 10th anniversary of the annual Run Armagh 10K in the city centre over the weekend.

The sun shone as competitors from all walks of life took place in the ever-popular and expanding 5k and 10k races.

The route takes you in and out of Armagh city centre before delivering a home-straight on the historic Mall.

The main 10k race was won by St Peter’s Athletics Club Gerard Heaney with Louise Smith of North Belfast Harriers’ taking the ladies title.

Heaney beat Armagh AC’s Gary Henderson with a time of 33m 49s while Smith beat Newry AC’s Ciara Coffey for top spot with a time of 40m27s. Armagh AC’s Noreen Fegan crossed the line in third with a time 41m02.

The event was part of the Novosco 10k Grand Prix.
