Dara Finn Cliona Murphy competed in the National 1500m races in Tullamore yeaterday. Darragh was a bit down on his best and found the pace a bit hot and Cliona ran a solid race finishing in 5mins 7 secs.
We got confirmation today that Alison Armstrong has been selected for the 1500m steeplechase at the Celtic international which will be held on the 3rd of August in Wales. Alison has really upped her game in her last few races and this chance to represent her country is well deserved. She follows in the illustrious footsteps of many of our older athletes who have run in the Celtics in their time and have continued on to greater things. Well done to Alison!
This weekend the National Senior championships will be held in Santry. We have been asked to get helpers to look after the baskets at the start of the races.Anyone over the age of 12 who is free Sat between 12.00 and 5, Sunday between 11 and 5 should text Mary to confirm their availability. We need about 20 people. This is a chance to see great athletics close up.
