Held as part of the Tralee Marathon series of events, 170 men and women registered for the event which started and finished in the Town Park.
Race Director, Jim McNieces was delighted with how the sold-out event went and looked forward to two more big days of running ahead in the town.

The full marathon, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year, will honour the memory of Christie Hennessy. Mike O’Donnell has painted a lovely mural on the River Lee Walkway to mark the milestone,” said Jim.
