On Sunday at the AAI games in Santry Catherine Mc Manus came 3rd in the hurdles and 3rd in the 100m. Her time in the 100m was her 2nd fastest ever only 20 mins after running the hurdles race which was very good. This weekend Catherine is off to Belgium to compete in an international race there. Niamh Donnelly and Aoife Bi Bhroin ran well in their 800m. Niamh is off to Scotland at the weekend to compete for the Irish Universities team against teams from the English, Scottish and Welsh Universities. Pierre Murchan flew out to Baku this morning to compete at the European Youth Olympics. Also going to Baku was Dublin City Harriers official Declan Curtin who wil be part of the judging panel out there next weekend. Well done and best wishes to all.
Meanwhile at the Primary school sports in Santry on Monday we had athletes representing several schools at the Field event day. Well done to our medal winners Nora Redmond, Billy Brennan, Faoilan O Murachu, Chloe Corcoran and Anna Petit. Well done to all! Busy Times:)
We had a great night at the Donore Sports in weather so cold we could have been at a cross country event! That didnt stop our athletes having great fun in the very relaxed meet that is Donore sports. It was nice to see some of our athletes who dont usually get placed in races getting medals and high places in their events. This creates great confidence for future competitions. Well done to all and if you didnt do as well as you hoped, hang in there.
At League 4 in Tallaght on Saturday we had a smaller gang than usual competing. Nice to see Caoimhe Lynam finding a new event or 2! Well done to Alison Burke, Chloe Corocran, Alex Corr, Sean Donoghue, all the under 11 crew and thank you to the parents who gave their children a chance to take part.
Sat24th May Older middle distance Hole in the Wall 10.30am
There will be a big inter firm relay race in the Park on Thursday night. It would be better to avoid the park and go down Infirmary road and out to Chapelizod that way or go around the Park via Castleknock.
Instead of training this Thursday night we will be going to Donore harriers for the annual sports night. This is a always a great night and well worth taking part in. The programme for the night is below.
