T
he An Cosantóir 10K Road Race, a highlight of the Defence Forces competitive sporting calendar took place in the
Phoenix Park on the 8th October 2014. Where 1,150 members of the Defence Forces braved the elements for the
35th annual An Cosantóir 10km Race. this year the 27 Inf Bn earned the bragging rights and envy of many a Unit
by winning the Best Block while the 6 Inf Bn won Best team for an impressive 6th consecutive year. the Best Female
category was won by Sgt tara Kennedy, DFhQ in a time of 41.10 and the Best Male won for the fifth consecutive year by
Pte Kenneth Rogers, 12 Inf Bn in an impressive time of 31.03. Well done to all who took part and a big thank you to all
who put the graft into making the event what it is, in particular the organising committee, the An Cosantóir/Info Office,
the Defence Forces Athletics Association (DFAA), and all those who gave a hand on the day.
