Updated with results: New course record - Travers' superb run sees him do a sub 15 minute run in the John Kilmartin Memorial 5k

John Travers of Donore Harriers set a new course record at the John Kilmartin Memorial 5k hosted by Milford AC on Friday evening as he clocked a superb 14:50, having run the first kilometre in 2:53.

Declan Ferry (Rosses AC) was second in 15:30 with Ramelton's Mark McPaul (Finn Valley) third in 15:33.

Milford AC's Marty Lynch set a PB with a run of 15:57 to finish fourth, just ahead of Gary Scully.

The above times are unofficial.

Once again it was a quality field and with conditions very favourable, it was no surprise to see so many fast times.

The previous course record was 15:14.
