Great news from the Leinster novice in Gowran today Conor Murphy and Christopher were on the scoring team for our senior club Dublin City Harriers which came 2nd team behind Mullingar Harriers. Both lads have slogged with us for over 10 years and now that they have graduated to the senior group are finally getting rewarded for all their hard work.
Some people haven’t got the patience or the stamina for the long haul but the lads have stuck at it through good and bad days. Finally coming through and scoring on a team. Well done lads , proud of you .

Looks like we will be getting a lot more rainy training days and we will just have to suck it up! Bring rain jacket and out you go, remember skin is water proof! Either run home after training or get home asap after. No hanging around in wet gear. 💪💪🌈🌈☔️☔️
Martha Fisher had a busy day on Wednesday in NIA competing in the Leinster schools combined events. She competed in the long jump, 60m hurdles, shot, high jump and 800m. This was her first time to do a pentathlon and she did well to finish 10th overall out of 40 entries. Well done Martha!
We won’t know what to do when we get a real cross country day in the future, we have been so spoiled so far this winter. Beautiful sunshine, no wind and dry underfoot. What’s not to like?
Our young athletes did like with the under 12 girls starting off our day. Three of the girls are under 11 but that didn’t stop them, Juliette led them in followed by Evie, Ellen , Cara and Ellie. Very good races today by all the team over the 2k distance.
The girls and boys under 14 were next off over 3k. Jessica was first in a fine 8th place, followed by Pearl, Maggie, a much improved Saoirse and Caroline, Emma whos under 13 and in her first season with us, Freya and Maisy. Tom and Daire did their best in the boys race 3k.
Star team of the day was our under 16 girls led in by Goda in 5th place, backed up with really brave running over 4K by Erin, Aoibhinn, Megan and Abigail to win the team gold! Fantastic running by all the girls!
The boys under 11 ran in the relay and did their best despite lacking a bit of training. The under 13 girls team of Freya Dillon , Amelia, Lauren and Lelia had a great team effort finishing 7th overall in their race. The girls gave it everything and were delighted with their result.
Thank you to all the parents who brought the teams out and supported today.
Next competition will be the uneven age groups Dublin championship on 5th November in Santry. Championship distances are challenging so only those who train regularly will be entered.
