On day 2 of the Nationals we had Cliona Murphy in action in the under 17 girls 800m. She finished a fine 5th in the race in a time of 2.34 beating the winner of the Dublins on the way! Well done Cliona.
We had athletes involved in four events at Day 1 of the Nationals. First into action was Sarah Curran in the under 17 girls hurdles which was a straight final and Sarah surprised all of us and especially herself by finishing a fine 3rd winning her first medal at National on the track. Next we had Siobhan McGinley in the 3k steeplechase and despite not having done any hurdling this year Siobhan battled through and won her third National steeplechase gold in a row in a new championship best time. Alison Burke was next to race and she qualified well for her 80m final coming 2nd in her heat. In the final she was up against much stronger, bigger girls and finished in sixth place. Sarah Curran competed in the heats of the 100m under 17 and didnt make the final.
Training updates from Sat 14 July
Training updates for next week have been posted on the training update page
We had a mixed weekend at the Nationals in Santry. On Saturday Steffi Creaner had a great run to finish 3rd in the womens 200m but on Sunday Steffi was very unlucky to pull a hamstring in the heat of the 100m. Catherine Mc Manus dearly wanted to compete in the 100m but she too was having hamstring problems and was advised not to risk racing. Hard luck on both girls. Otherwise we had a group of helpers out there for the weekend doing the baskets at the start lines and we had Celine, Sara Byrne. and Sara Dwyer and Ciara Hanley doing a great job at the presentations. Well done and thank you to all.
