We had a great weekend of competition with lots of Celtic DCHers competing in the Dublin Indoors (&Outdoors!!)
Day 1: Friday Night Santry
Dora ran great race to finish 2nd in the U16 girls 1500m and Aoife Corr placed 3rd with Ellen in 4th in the U19 1500m. Daire had a great run to place 1st in the U18 1500m with Evan in 3rd in the U19 boys race. Ben was also happy with his race in the boys U17 1500m.
Aoife, Ellen, Daire, and Dora had all run on Wednesday in the Leinster Schools Cross Country so they had a tough week!
On Friday night Emily managed a major breakthrough winning theU16 high jump when clearing a new PB of 1.60m – great jumping by Emily and puts her right up there Nationally in her age group! Alison finished 2nd in the Long Jump U17.

Chloe, Ali and Caoimhe all placed 2nd in their respective 200m finals and Finn Bourke-Power 4th in his 200m. Lily and Shona ran very well coming in 5th and 6th in the 500m U11 and Niamh was a good 9th. Finn (U11) was 5th in the 500m. Aoife Corr was a close 3rd in the 800m U19 and Daire and Evan both won their 800m races . Sean ran really in the U15 800m finishing 4th and would certainly have been feeling the effects of his hard race on Wednesday when winning the Leinster Schools.
In the U 13 600m Antonia, Antoinette and Kacey did really well to make the finals. Juliane, Claire, Alex and Keelin also ran really well in their heats.
