Club athletes won 2 silver team medals on Sunday , under 11 girls, under 13 girls and under 19 girls. The under 11 team were led in by Antonia in a fine 3rd place , followed by Alex in 7th, Keelin 19th, Antoninette 2th, Kacey 35th, Julianne39th and Clare 45th. The under 13 girls were led in by Ada in her best race ever finishing 8th, Anna an impressive 12th, backed up by Libby in 16th, Sara Byrne in a great race to finish 26th, Katie in 31st, Laura May in 36th, Celine 39th and Alannah in 45th place.

The under 19 girls were led to silver medals by Cliona Murphy in 3rd place, Alison in 5th and Cliona Carthy (running her first race in over a year) in 9th place. The same three girls combined with Eva Redmond to get bronze medals in the Junior womens championship.

In the under 9 girls race Niamh O Connor ran her best race yet to finish 20th with Aoife Corocoran not far behind in 25th. Oisin finished 28th in the boys under 9. Scott ran his usual strong race to finish 19th in the boys under 11. In the boys under 13 Sean Donoghue came through very strongly on the last lap to finish 3rd. In the boys under 17 Ben Quinn finished a fine 12th with Oscar running very well finishing 16th overall.
Pierre stayed with the group for the first 3 of his 4 laps and going into the last lap pulled away easily and won by a very big margin at the end of his race. Everyone who is training regularly is coming along very nicely. Keep it up and well done to all. REMEMBER WRAP UP AND LIGHT UP FOR THE DARK NIGHTS>

Some results from today, still waiting for more.

Under 11 girls team were 2nd

Under 13 girls team were 2nd

Junior womens team 3rd

Antonia 3rd under 11, Sean 3rd under 13, Ada. Anna and Ben top 15

Pierre 1st Junior and Under 19 boys, Clliona Murphy, Alison and Cliona Carthy all got individual medals in Under 19 girls race but as they were mixed with Juniors we do not have exact places yet. Eva Redmond was also on junior team with the 3 girls Under 19. Very disappointing that we didnt have our under 17 boys team out as they would have got a bronze team medal and qualified for Nationals. Well done to all who turned out to represent the club. Full report to follow
