IT was a cold morning, but the love of running was in the air for the Valentines 10-mile road race yesterday in town.

A sold out event, the 500 runners gathered at the Tralee Wetlands and some really made the effort for the day that was in it, with reds and pinks very popular colours.

The runners made it around the route to finish on Neil Armstrong Way in the Town Park, where there was a great atmosphere for them on home strait.

The top three men were;

1. Donal O’Callaghan 00:55:57
2. Derek Griffin 00:56:14
3. Sean O’Sullivan  00:57:06

While the first three women home were;

1. Sharon Cahill  01:06:39
2. Caitriona Barry 01:06:50
3. Dolores Duffy 01:08:22
