29 Photos from Walled City 10 Miler as 1,500 hit streets of Derry!
The wintry weather didn’t deter more than 1,500 athletes descending on Derry for Saturday’s Walled City 10 Miler.
The route, which began in St. Columb’s Park, took runners along both sides of the River Foyle as Foyle Valley’s Scott Rankin emerged the overall winner with Lifford-Strabane AC’s Claire McGuigan first female home. ‘Journal’ Photographer George Sweeney was there to capture the day on camera, so why not have a look and see if he caught you or anyone you know on the big day . . .
