GIDEY STORMS TO 1:00.51 HALF MARATHON IN COPENHAGEN
Efrem Gidey (Clonliffe Harreirs) produced a huge performance in Copenhagen earlier this morning (Sept 15th) to break the national half marathon record.
Gidey clocked 1:00:51 to finish 15th in the half marathon which looks set to be confirmed as a national record once ratified, bettering the time of 1:00:57 set by Martin Fagan back in 2009.
Splits:
20K – 57.43
Gidey has enjoyed another superb season on both the roads and the track. The Clonliffe athlete led the Irish charge home in the men’s 10,000m at the European Championships in Rome back in June, finishing 12th in 28:16.94.
