MUNSTER GOLD
FOR Daniel Colbert
Daniel Colbert won the Munster U23 indoor 400 mtr. in great style in Nenagh today. This is a brilliant achievement for this young man who is not yet even twenty. Well done Daniel you did yourself and the club proud.
For those of you that missed a previous post Daniel was awarded with a special award from the Cork County Board last Fri night at a reception in the River Lee Hotel. He was the first ever senior athlete from the club to receive such an award.
Littleisland FMC 4Mile
Almost five hundred runners took part in this race this morning which through no fault of the BHAA was almost half hour late starting. We had a large contingent from Midleton AC taking part far too many to mention individually but all seemed to run well with Chris McCarthy getting him self a new PB as did Paula O'Sullivan and Helen Kenny. Mike Cremin got a new PB in 24..55 with some great running.
A big thank you to those from the club who came to support. We had a few prize winners also John O'Halloran took 1st O/60 and Joan McCarthy 2nd O/55 and Kathleen O'Connell 3rd O/55. Unfortunately there was a fall at the start when a Mallow runner Neil Holland tripped and badly hurt himself. Best wishes Neil hope you are recovered soon. Please be sure and register with the BHAA as a lot of runners lost out on prizes today due to not having registered.
As always please send in your reports and results ,PBs etc. if you want them mentioned on the blog. mdtacinfo@gmail.com
Notice from Cork BHAA
FMC 4Mile Littleisland @11am Sunday Next.
The next race on the BHAA calendar is the FMC 4 mile Please try and get there early so as to avoid the long queues that usually occur at this race. It is a relatively easy course almost an out and back with a loop in the middle. One thing to look out for is that the start and finish are in different places. The finish is about ¼ mile from the hall and the start is over ¾ mile from the hall. It is easy to think you are finished when you see the hall.
Please note also you must be registered with BHAA (10 EURO) in order to be eligible for prizes in this race. Entry fee 5 E for reg. runners and 8E for others. A really well organised and enjoyable race.

As always please send in your reports and results if you want them mentioned on the blog. mdtacinfo@gmail.com. This would be a great help as I am very busy doing the registrations for the club at the moment.
