North Leinster schools update

Day 1 of North Leinsters was on 6th May in Santry.Lucas Cahill was our only club athlete in action in the minor age group and he ran a very good race finishing 2nd in the 1100m.
Juliette ran well in the junior 1500m finishing in the top six. Ellen had a great run in the hurdles heat finishing first, was going well in the final when she unfortunately hit a hurdle and fell heavily. Hard luck Ellen ! Cut and bruised but was out on Sat to Dunboyne for trainingđź’Şđź’Ş.
In the under 16 mile Saoirse finished 5th with Emma not too far behind in 7th place. In the under 16 relay Jessica, Maisy , Emma and Saoirse were impressive winners.

Danielle won her inter 100m heat and finished 3rd in the final. Maisy had a great run in the 300m hurdles coming through strongly in the last 50m to finish 3rd. Well deserved medal for a hard working athlete. Jessica came 7th in a very high standard inter 800m. Caroline had her first outing over 3k on the track and ran a solid race finishing 4th in her age group.

In the senior races Martha showed the result of regular training with a great win in the hurdles and 5th place in the 100m final. Aimee led off the Dominic’s senior relay team to a fine win with Martha and Erin from the club on the team.

( if any omissions drop a text to Mary).
Thank you to the parents who supported and gave lifts over the two days.
