A good days work in Santry by our athletes today at Day 1 of the Leinster schools. First into action was Finn Burke-Power running for St Declans in the minor boys 500m where he finished a fine 3rd. In the junior boys 800m Ben Quinn was running for Belvedere and despite running a fine new personal best was narrowly edged out of the medals. Dara Finn St Declans was a fine 3rd in the minor boys 1100m. Sara Curran was unfortunate to hit a hurdle and was out of the 75m hurdles. In the inter girls steeplechase Cliona Carthy ran a great race finishing 2nd with Alison Armstrong an impressive 3rd. The relays were the last events of the day and Alison Burke was on the St Dominics team which finished 2nd in the minor girls race and Ellen Byrne was on the under 16 St Dominics 4 x 300m team which also finished 2nd. Well done to all.
