Under 21 woman beat the men

Breeshey Harkin won the under 21 race for women, which finishes at Peel, on her first attempt.

Her time of 6.48.28 but her 4 minutes and 25 seconds ahead of James Moore who won the men's race.

Breeshey is pictured with her father Eammon who last year finished 4th in the whole event but this year chose to "only" walk to Peel with Breeshey following illness and injury.

Breeshey, who is head girl at King Williams College, was making her debut although her participation was in doubt due to blisters incurred whilst training.
