Dublin Graded meeting – Santry 12 June

Despite the wet conditions the club had a very happy night in Santry for the Graded and Dublin Senior championships. First into action was Catherine Mc Manus and she had a great run in the 100m and was beaten by 1/100 of a second into 2nd place.
Danny had a fine run in the 400m ( no official times for some of our runners as computer broke down, will be up on Dublinathletics.com). Pierre ran 2.01.75 in the 800m which was a new pb by over 3 seconds, Clare Brennan and Niamh Donnelly ran great new pbs in the womens 800m with Aislinn Moorehouse, Heather and Cliona close behind.

AAI Games Results

While our younger athletes were competing at the Dublin Juvenile championships on Sunday most of the older gang were in action in Santry at the AAI games. In the 1500m event all the girls improved on their seasons best and Niamh Donnelly got a personal best – Well done girls! Michael Fitzpatrick also had a good run in the 400m on the day. Results on the AAI website here

In the 100m Catherine continues her fight to recover from a long standing injury and Steffi ran a personal best in the 200m and got under the qualifying time for the European Under 23s with a big PB of 23.72. Both Catherine and Steffi were part of the National U23 4×100 relay team who broke their National Record in the relay for the second time. Read more about the U23 Relay team here.
