Sean back in action!

Great news overnight from the US that Sean Donoghue finished 3rd in a 1500m race in a very fast 3min 47 just outside his personal best. Sean is on an athletic scholarship in Villanova university and has been sidelined for many months due to a niggling injury. He has done weeks of rehab and just recently got back into solid training so this result is great news.Well done Sean.

Relay girls make National final!!

Big congratulations to Martha,Alice, Goda and Aimee our under 15 relay team on making the final in the National indoors in Athlone today. The girls ran a fantastic heat and were the only Dublin team to make the final. With two of our girls being under 14 the final was always going to be a tough one. They ran a second faster but finished 6th. Great experience gained and they all should be very proud of themselves. Huge thanks to all the parents for looking after the girls today.
