Caitlin BentJul 8 2025, 7:07pmPaddy was one of the coolest people in the Mountain Running scene. He inevitably arrive at a race with seconds to spare, but would breeze up the hill, having a chat with all he encountered.
He was charming and very inclusive, and I'm sure he will be missed by his lovely wife Judy who accompanied him to his races over the years.
I first encountered Paddy on the Glensoulan circuit way back. He had arrived late and caught up with me, and, as the route was unmarked, Paddy accompanied me around the course, and was great company.
So sad to loose him.
Paul NolanJul 12 2025, 8:40pmPaddy Lord (Lord Navan in jest) was a wonderful human being who packed several lifetimes worth of adventure into his time on this earth. His hospitality, warmth and genuine interest in those around him marked him out as a good soul.
So sad to hear of his passing.
