Hi allDue to the orange weather warning this evening we are cancelling 7pm training in Grangegorman. The 5pm group can go out if there is a break in the weather and it’s safe to do so. Mind the branches as the wind is supposed to be gale force later. Keep safe.
Well done to all who represented the club over the last two weekends at the Dublin indoors. We had athletes compete in over 60 events ! Lots of personal bests, good few finalists , lots of first timers. Medals are nice but doing your best in the day and learning is even better. Thank you to the coaches who were there from early morning and gave their time on a Bank holiday weekend.
Thank you to all the parents who supported over the three days .
Relays next Saturday !

Well done to Max won the shot putt under 15 at Day 1 of the Dublin indoors, first time over the 11m mark. A lot of hard work put in over the winter by Max and great support from his Dad.
Íde had her first outing in the walking race under 14 and was very impressive as she powered around the 1k race to win her first Dublin medal.
Earlier in the day the 200m heats were held. Pearl finished 7th overall, Sean ran his first 200 very good run 9th overall, Freya and Maisy ran well even though 200 is a bit short for both of them.
Martha had a solid run in her heat and ran faster in her final just missing out on a bronze medal.
Great to see our two under 15s Rion and Ellen make the final of their race finishing 5th and 7th.
Martha had a straight final and the finish was very close, so close that 2nd place couldn’t be separated so joint 2nd place for Martha. Well done to all .
Day 2 and 3 next weekend!
