Katie and Caitriona Do Amsterdam

2016 has seen our women’s endurance section grow and is possibly one of the strongest in the country now. We’ve been strengthened this year with many new additions and two of these newbies, Katie Penrose and Caitriona Conneely, traveled to the Dutch capital last weekend for a Half and Full Marathon, respectively.

Katie has DCM on her radar and approached the Half conservatively, as a training run, but still managed to clock an impressive 1:35:04 – super running.

Caitriona took on the 26.2 mile distance and finished with a fantastic time of 3:27, minus a toenail or two.

Both recommend the race highly, maybe one for the to-do list for our marathoners at some stage.

Well done ladies on a couple of excellent performances.
