Thanks to all the young athletes, parents and friends who helped make the Irish runner 10 mile a success in the Phoenix park on Saturday morning. Much appreciated by Athletics Ireland.

Sam, Antonia and Aontoinette ran in the 200m heats, Sam just outside his best time. Joe Fogarty ran a very mature race in his 1500m finishing 4th just after arriving home on Fri from 3 weeks in the gaeltacht! Great run Joe! Sean Donoghue finished 2nd in a very competitive 1500m under 18. Emily Corcoran finished off her under age career with a gold medal in the high jump under 19. Well done Emily.

Sean 2nd place in 1500m in National under 18 in Tullamore.

Well done to a delighted Aoife Corr who notched up another 800m PB at the graded meeting in Santry last night. Aoife finished strongly behind Clare Brennan who ran a big seasons best and won the grade A race. Edel McNamara wasn’t far off her best, Aoife Donaghy was just inside her best time. Gillian Murphy was below her best and rightly called time on a long season. Earlier in less than ideal conditions Sam and Ashley ran well despite the lashing rain in their 100m races. Well done Everyone.
