On Sat last we had a big group of our older athletes in action at the inter varsity road relays in Maynooth. Cliona Murphy has a great run for Trinity college and helped her team to first place in the women’s event. Nadia Power and Jodie McCann were both very impressive helping DCU to 2nd place overall. Edel Monaghan and Aoife Corr were very strong representing TUDublin.

In the men’s race Pierre Murchan ran a brilliant 3mile leg and helped his team from Galway University to 3rd place.

Well done to all . Great to see our older athletes representing their colleges so well.
