We had two teams in action at Day 2 of the Nationals in Wexford today. As there was a problem with the chip result system we dont have definite results yet but we are fairly sure that our gallant under 19 girls got 2nd team. They were led in by Claire Brennan in 10th place, a brilliant run for Claire who has battled breathing problems for the last 3 to 4 years but has never given up the faith! Well done Claire. Olwyn Kennedy had probably her best run ever finishing 14th with Heather just behind. Eva Redmond found the going tough but battled right to the end.
In the under 17 event Cliona Carthy had a great run finishing 13th with Cliona Murphy running her usual strong race finishing 17th. Alison Armstrong drifted back on the last lap and Caoimhe Jamesion found the going very tough but managed to finish. The two Clionas should get on the Dublin scoring teams.
Aoife Corr finished 43rd in the under 15 race.
The course in Adamstown was old style cross country in a farmers field with a little bit of cows manure sprinkled about but a very good course for cross country.
