Mountain Race 2025
The 2025 College Mountain Race from above the Kilmashogue car park to the Ticknock gate entrance and back attracted twenty two runners. The race was dominated by Transition Year participants. No new records were set but very respectable times were recorded on this 8 kilometre up and down race.
Daniel Moran was the winner in 31 minutes 35 seconds, pressed hard by Kae Ren Loh in 31 minutes and 55 seconds, with marathon runner Archie McKeever taking third place in 33 minutes 55 seconds. Alannah McCoole won the girls’ trophy for the second consecutive year in 37 minutes and 12 seconds (1 minute 32 seconds shy of the record she set last year).
We say goodbye to Sixth Form ‘Mountain Run’ faithfuls participating for their third time: Jamie Casey, Archie McKeever, and George Priestley.
