Maratón BÁC críochnaithe ag Martin | Martin completes Dublin Marathon

Martin Gormley sa Maratón — Martin Gormley sa Mharatón

[lang_ie]Ghlac an Dr.Martin Gormley, Oifigeach Oideachais d’Aoisigh páirt inniu i Maratón Chathair Bhaile Átha Cliath. Chríochnaigh sé faoi 3 uair a chloig (2:57) agus is seo am ar dóigh go háirithe leis an aimsir ghaofar agus fliuch a bhí ann.

Bhí Martin ansin mar bhall do Chumann Lúthchleasa Leitir Ceanainn agus bhí sé an tríú duine acu a bhain an chríoch amach inniu. Bhí Martin fós go haonarach ag glacadh páirt d’Ospís Dhún na nGall anseo i Leitir Ceanainn.

Is é seo an 8ú maratón do agus an t-am is fearr go pearsanta do féin ar ndóigh sa bhliain 2007 le 2 uair 42 nóiméad.

Ní raibh sé a bhfad taobh amuigh do sin inniu. Déanann muid uile comhghairdeas leis.

[lang_en-uk]Dr.Martin Gormley, one of our Adult Education Officers took part today in the Dublin City Marathon and given the windy and wet conditions completed the course in a very respectable time of 2 hours 57 minutes.

Martin was taking part not only as a member of his local Letterkenny Athletic Club, of which he was the third member home today, but was also representing Donegal Hospice.

This is his 8th marathon and has returned a personal best of 2 hours 42 minutes back in 2007. He wasn’t that far off that today given the conditions. We all congratulate him and Well Done.[/lang_en-uk]
