Dublin schools cross country

The inaugural Dublin schools cross country championships for first and Second year students was held in the Phoenix Park today. Clare o Connor had her first outing for st Dominic’s and finished a fine 4th in a field of over 200 runners. Joseph Fogarty continued his fine form and showed what a talent he is with a very impressive win in the first year boys race in his first outing for st Declans.

In the second year race Alex Corr finished a very good 5th and led her st Dominic’s team to first place. The backup team of Kacey Tully, Kate Harrold, Caolan Gogarty all ran their socks off to win the first Dublin championship. Well done everyone
