The cross country season was wrapped up today with the annual parkside schools event in the Bogies. We had a huge number of our younger athletes in action representing their schools.

Martha Fisher was 3rd and Abigail Delaney was 4th in the race for girls born in 2009. Aimee Ryan was an impressive winner of the 2008 girls race with Aimee Corcoran 4th

Shona Gogarty was equally impressive winning the race for 2007 girls with Lily Farrell having her best race ever coming 2nd and Beth o Malley a fine 6th.

Niamh o Connor finished 3rd in the girls 2006 race and Cliodhna Ryan was a very good 2nd in the last girls race for girls born in 2005/4.

In the boys 2009 age group Bruce o Brien ran a great race finishing 5th with George Harrold 6th. Finn Mc Auley came 6th in the 2006 boys race.

Well done to everyone. Thank you to all the parents and friends who helped out today. Lots of trophy winners from your childrens schools who are not in the running club. Please encourage any that you know to join up.

Hi everyone, we got the go ahead for the Bogies tomorrow 🙏🙏🙏. Any of our younger athletes on school teams need not come training tonight. Any parents free to during the races please come down for 10.30. thank you.

Well done to Chloe Corcoran who finished 5th in the 60m under 18 final in Athlone today. Dora also finished 5th in the final of the 1500m under 18 in 4mins 58 just outside the time she ran in her heat earlier in the day. Two 1500m on one day is a hard day at the office!! Gillian Murphy came 11th in a very fast under 16 race and Emily Murphy just missed qualifying for the under 18 final. Long day. Well done everyone.

Club training is cancelled today due to weather conditions.
