Well done to Sean Donoghue on winning his first Dublin medal when he came 3rd in the under 13 boys 600m today in Tallaght. Sean came 4th in his heat on Friday night and despite only recently joining the club ran a very mature race in his final to win his bronze medal. Sophie English made the final of the under 13 sprint but was outside the medals on this occasion. Chloe Corcoran ran a great race to finish 2nd in her 80m final and came 4th in the long jump. Last but not last, to finish off a busy weekend Abbey Corr and Sarah Jane Brennan won both their walk races. Well done to all!
Best of luck to Sophie in the 60m, Chloe in the 80m, Sean in the final of the 600m, Sara Jane and Abbey in the Walks on Day 3 of the Dublins in Tallaght.

In the under 18 boys 1500m Pierre had a great win looking particularly impressive on the last lap.
At the Northern Ireland championships in Belfast Catherine Mc Manus won the senior womens 100m. The weather in Belfast was quite a contrast to the lovely day we had in Tallaght with torrential rain forcing the cancellation of some of the events.
