In the women’s race Cliona Murphy led the Trinity College team to first place finishing in a fine 5th place overall. Great running by both athletes.

We headed to the ‘country’ this morning for our first cross country races in two years!! So good to see all our first timers and experienced young athletes getting a chance to compete on a course that none of us had been to before.

Thank you to all the parents who brought their children out today and to all our supporters. Well done to all of our athletes and we will have full results available in a few days. Next races Sunday after next . Venue not confirmed yet.
