North Down Dominate the Ards Half Marathon podium

 

North Down had a very successful night of running at the Ards Half Marathon on Friday evening.  The top 3 podium positions were filled with the blue and yellow as Jamie Budde won the race in 1:14:07, Dale Murray came 2nd in 1:14:22 and Gareth Watton claimed 3rd in 1:15:38.  Evidence of the quality training that Jamie has orchestrated over the last few months around the Ward Park area.

Well done to all the ND athletes who ran the Ards half, there is no shirking that climb back up towards Scrabo after 10 miles.
