POC fada
Sixteen hardy souls - 11 men, 2 ladies and 3 lads - braved the rain and the climb up the Hen Mountain for the traditional Boley Poc Fada. Despite the rain and the slippery underfoot conditions great craic was had along the way with John Murphy holding on to the Men's title; Kitty Fegan denied Orla Maginn her fifth-in-a-row Ladies' title; only two of the boys (all Woods') competed and they couldn't be separated - congratulations to debutant cousins Thomas and Oisin Woods.
