Just a quick note to let members know some results from the Curragh today. In the under 15 girls race Alison Armstrong ran a great race to finish in 15th position. Aoife Corr and Ellen Byrne ran great races to finish 28th and 30th and all 3 girls made the scoring team for Dublin in the Inter County and Inter Provincial team races. In the under 15 boys race Pierre was straight in to the leading bunch from early on and going into the big lap about half way was among the top three who had pulled away from the rest of the field. Club members and supporters were running wildly to every corner of the course to cheer Pierre on. These 3 fought a huge battle over the big lap and with 600m to go were locked together with any one of the three looking capable of winning. With 200m to go the Sligo athlete McBride and Gibbons from Letterkenny(last years winner) pulled away and Pierre finished a fantastic 3rd in a tough and exciting race . Pierre also led the Dublin team to gold medals in the Inter County team race. In the girls under 17yrs, Cliona Carthy ran a fine race to finish 22nd and was a scoring member on the gold medal winning Dublin team in the Inter County and Inter Provincial event. In the girls under 19 race Heather Lougheed glided through the field to finish a brilliant 5th in her best ever cross-country result at Nationals. Olwyn kennedy finished a very fine 23rd in her best ever result by a huge margin in a National Cross-Country. Sinead Cronin ran in the women’s novice race and at time of printing we have not seen the results. See also ‘Recent Photos’
