Great news from Athlone today that Emily Corcoran has won the under 19 high jump title with a jump off 1 m 63cm. Emily was not feeling great this morning but still managed to pull off the win. Gillian Murphy was delighted with her 5th place in the 1500m under 17 and even more delighted with a 7 second PB running 4m.56secs! Clare o Connor was competing in her first National track event and ran really well and will gain great experience from racing today. Well done to everyone. Gillian and Clare are back tomorrow for the 800, with Clare Murphy, Keelin Gogarty and Sara Byrne.
