Graded Meeting Update

A beautiful night for racing and loads of great performances from our ‘Big Kids’. Not a bad way to spend a Summers evening in Dublin! First off we had Alison Armstrong in the under 18 Dublin Championship steeplechase which she won in fine style. Catherine Mc Manus followed with a win in the Senior Championship 100m. The 400m races were next up with Ellen running very well in the girls B race. The boys were next with Shane, Michael and Evan and the club performance of the night Eoin Kavanagh who won his race in a brilliant time of 52.35,

Allt the 800m runners got personal bests or close to pbs, great running all round from Aoife Ni Bhroin, Cliona Murphy, Aoife Corr, Niamh Donnelly,Sinead Cronin, Christopher Clarke, Pierre Murchan, Heather Lougheed and especially Olwyn Kennedy who has been struggling with injury for nearly a year. The official results will be up on the Dublin athletics board website later today. Great to see so many of our ‘Big Kids’ supporting each other and enjoying their athletics.
