Letterkenny Athletic Club athlete Marc Wallace who won the Ballyliffin 10 mile Coastal Challenge at the weekend.
Wallace crossed the line in a superb time of 58:34. Known to be a challenging course with a beach finish, he finished 1 minute and 20 seconds ahead of the runner-up.
In other Letterkenny AC news, sprinters Harry McIIwaine, Sheldon Romeo Nyoni and Joseph Aidoo all featured well at Lagan Valley during a meet at the Mary Peters track. Well done to our club representatives.
