Juvenile League Round 2
On Saturday in Tallaght we had a group of athletes in action at League 2. There were some very impressive performances and it was great to see the confidence gained from competing in League 1. Sophie English, Ella MaeCromie, Ellen Byrne, Conor Murphy and Pierre Murchan were particularly impressive in their events.
National Intervarsity Championships
Also at the weekend we had 3 athletes in action at the National Intervarsity Championships in Athlone. On Friday Sinead Cronin had a good season opener in the 1500m finishing 6th in 5.06. Catherine Mc Manus ran a new personal best in a slightly wind assisted 100m hurdles finishing 2nd to Jesse Barr and she also finished 2nd in the 100m to Steffi Creaner. Steffi came 2nd in the 200m. Catherine was lead off in the 4×100 m relay and had built up a huge lead only for the 2nd and 3rd runners to drop the baton and unfortunately then were out of the race.
