Monaghan 10 Miler Race

The Monaghan 10 Miler is a well-regarded fixture on the racing calendar, known for its welcoming atmosphere and scenic countryside route. The course takes runners out along rolling rural roads, offering plenty of “wee” hills to keep things interesting, but rewarding participants with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape throughout.

Representing Magherafelt Harriers, Orlagh Darragh delivered a strong performance over the 10 miles and crossed the finish line in an excellent time of 1:33:45.

Fantastic run Orlagh well done 👏🏻
