Julie Balmer was 34th woman in 2.58.22 on Sunday in the London Marathon, triumphing after a nightmare year of injury. Taking a staggering 28 min off her pb and becoming the first North Down woman in 28 years to go sub 3 hours, Julie’s run was a truly awesome performnce, It was just 15 seconds off Roma McConville‘s North Down record, set when she won the Belfast Marathon in 2:28:07 hrs
At this stage we are unsure which other club runners did London this year and would encourage them to contact us.
So far, apart from Julie , we have
Douglas Grant, 3:16.48 splits
Janine Skelly 4:55:32 splits
