In excellent preparation for next month's Anglo Celtic Plate 100km, John Byrne finished second in the Bramley 20-Mile in a time of 1:52:19 on 20th February.
John's performance was all the more remarkable given that he lost about a minute due to mis-direction.
His time is a big confidence booster for both him and the Irish team in their challenge for the Anglo Celtic Plate100km team title in Perth, Scotland on 27th March.
