A record number of competitors turned out on Saturday for the eighth annual FEARmanagh endurance race.
420 people took part in the event, which included running cycling and kayaking throughout the scenic surroundings of Derrygonnelly and West Fermanagh.
Those taking part covered as much as 74km during the race, with many local athletes competing as well as many from further afield.
The event started and finished at Derrygonnelly Community Centre, with the scenic and challenging route including many iconic Co Fermanagh sights such as Big Dog Forest, the Lough Navar viewpoint and the Blackslee waterfall.
Presenting prizes to the fastest male and female competitors, Vice Chair of Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, Councillor Chris McCaffrey said he hoped the event would bring people back to the district as they discovered its spectacular landscapes.
"I would like to congratulate everyone who has taken part in this year’s FEARmanagh event,” Cllr McCaffrey said.
“FEAR was developed by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council to bring visitors to Derrygonnelly and the West Fermanagh locality to experience and enjoy the rugged and spectacular landscapes of the area through the challenge of adventure sport.
“I hope that you have all enjoyed the event today and that you will come back again to enjoy this beautiful part of our district.”
This year’s event also featured the Ciaran Murphy Memorial Trophy, which was presented by the Murphy family in recognition of Ciaran’s courageous battle with Cystic Fibrosis, to raise awareness of the disease and to encourage organ donation.
