Well done to Catherine won her heat in the 100m equalling her personal best on route to victory. Catherine went on to finish 7th in her semi final after a bad start. You can’t give those fast girls a head start!

Steph Creaner finished in sixth place in a very tough 200m heat against some of the fastest girls in Europe after a long wait around to race.

Great to see two Celtic DCH athletes representing Ireland at the European U23s – hopefully more to come in the future!

Well done girls we’re all so proud of you! Go Celtic DCH!

National Juvenile championships Day2

Day 2 of the Nationals kicked off for us with Danny in the 400m where he ran well but didnt make the final. Next we had Pierre and Cliona Murphy in their 800m races which are a bit short for them both. They both ran well but found the pace and the weather a bit hot for them. Chloe and Emily both jumped really well in the high jump under 13. First did 1.43, 2nd 1.40 and 6 girls tied on 1.35, when the countbacks were done Chloe was 4th and Emily 6th with a pb of 1.35.
