The Dublin even age groups cross country championships took place today in the Phoenix Park. Ava Mannix raced very well in her first dublin championships in the under 10 girls race. Cara was our lead runner in the under 12 race with Isabelle having her best race so far , Ellie not too far away , backed up by our newbies Mia, Ellen ,Rachel, Ide and Aoibhinn. Tough outing over 2k for all the girls.
In the under 14 girls race Freya ran herself to a standstill coming 10th, Juliette had a stunning run up an age group, Amelia, Emma, Lauren( up an age group)and Lelia found the going tough but gave it their all over the 2500m course.
Our under 16 girls headed out in the rain over their 3,500m course and were led in by Sara in 10th place. Saoirse Rogers ( up an age group) stormed through the field with a great run and 2nd Celtic finisher followed by Megan , Jessica, Pearl and Caroline and Lama. Well done to Ella and Abigail whose job today was to finish and both girls did their job well.
Our boys under 16 were led in by Daire (up an age group) with a very good last lap , Sam, Oscar and Dan are new to competitive action and will have gained valuable experience today.
Well done to everyone. Thank you to the parents for bringing their children and for supporting. Thank you to Niamh who rocked at the start line on behalf of the club.
