Many thanks to all who were in contact with us with comments on the provisional results for the Dublin Championships 5k road race which was held with the Rathfarnham 5k last Sunday. The attached list represents the results as of today. As before, the first four home from a Club score on their senior team. This team may include Masters runners. When a finisher scores on a medal winning team, they are not used again to determine their Club's score in their own team category.  As before if you see any errors please email This email address is being protected from spambots.

The first running of the Dublin Championships 5k Road race Championships was run in conjunction with the Rathfarnham 5k on Sunday 25th September 2022. Well done to all who ran and Rathfarnham WSAF AC thank all Clubs for taking part in this race. The full results of the 5k are posted on the Myrunresults website at https://www.myrunresults.com/events/rathfarnham_5k_2022/4549/results. The Dublin team results are provisional and will be finalised over the next week. They are based on the agreement at last month's Dublin Board meeting which confirmed our road racing team results tabulation. All team results are based on the first past the post principle. My runresults used a combined tabulation of runners finishing times to determine the team results. In some cases M35+ or F35+ finishers were moved up to make up a Senior team. Likewise M50+ or F50+ finishers were moved up to make up M/F35+ teams. As no team declarations were made beforehand Clubs may feel that they were adversely affected in the M/F50+ team Categories.
