Great news today! We have confirmation that Pierre has been selected for the Irish team for the European Youth Olympic Trials. He will be flying out to Baku in Azerbaijan( get the maps out) on the 28th May for a week. Hurrah!

 

 

We had athletes in action in Tallaght today with the younger kids leagues and in Greystones for the Irish Milers club meeting. Tallaght got the the best of the weather and we had a fine turnout despite matches and confirmation. Nice to see the experience of a few races paying off especially for Ella Mae, Sean, Dora and Caoimhe. Well done to all. Once again thanks to the parents for bringing the athletes to the competitions. In Greystones the weather was a story on its own with heavy showers rolling in over the Wicklow mountains driven by blustery winds. We had Catherine Mc Manus battling to a win in the 100m and a good 2nd in the 200m in a strong minus wind. Our star of the day was Pierre who knocked 8 secs from his personal best in the 3000m, running 8mins 38secs and achieved the qualifying time for the European Youth Olympics in Baku at the end of this month. Achieving the time does not guarantee selection so we will have to wait and see what happens next week when the selectors have their meeting. Great run in not so nice conditions!
