It was a frosty and cold morning in Laois yesterday but it didn’t stop hundreds from taking part in the annual Great Heath Run.
People had the option to take part in a 10km run or a 5km run and supporters cheered from the sidelines as always.
As always there was a great atmosphere and people of all ages turned out to take part in the race.
The Great Heath run is a well-established one and has always proved a popular start to the new year.
