A big thank you to all our helpers who contributed to the smooth running of our annual Parkside Cross country in the Bogies today. Thanks to Hilary, Edel, Bianca, Dave, Threase, Tina, Paul, Fiona, Rhona, Susan, Catherine, Mary Gavin and apologies if we have forgotten anyone. You did a great job!
Our young athletes also did a great job today starting with the the 2007 age group. Lola came 6th , Lily Farrell a fine 4th, Niamh Bergin a very good 2nd and a very impressive winner in Shona Gogarty. In the 2006 girls age group Niamh O Connor finished a fine 4th, Finn Mc Auley had a great run finishing 2nd in boys 2006 race and Oisin Gavin finished a very happy 4th. Our 2005 crew were in good form as well with Lia Butler Lynch finishing 6th and Keelin Collins winning in fine style. The 2005 boys was won very well by James Mc Manus. Clare O Connor was an impressive winner of the final girls race in her last outing over cross country for her school with Jana Mohieden a very good 5th today. In the last race of the day Joe Fogarty won impressively with Richie O Driscoll in 4th place.
Great running all round and the weather good was on our side as well. 😀

We had a very successful Leinster Indoor championships in the National Indoor Arena in Abbotsown on Sunday with many of our athletes picking up medals and PBs. Unfortunately the electronic timing for some reason failed to work for the sprint events resulting in no times for these athletes which was very disappointing. Nonetheless, our athletes put out a sterling set of performances on the day. A full list of achievements are below, as there is too many to congratulate individually!
Catherine McManus – Sen women 60m Final (1st) Sen women Long Jump (2nd)
