Trip Away Due to a clash with the very popular Charleville 1/2 marathon the planned club outing to the Kilmore Quay 10k has been scrapped and replaced with the fabulous looking Ballycastle County Mayo
Céide fields 1/2 marathon or 10k....right along the Céide field coastline and cliffs, 100% off road. 1/2 = €37.50 and 10 = €29. WHEN?..... OCTOBER 12th....that's the weekend AFTER Cork to Cobh. Clear your diaries for that weekend folks. This is an annual club outing, a fun time for members to get away together. This trip will be subsidised by the club....subsidy depending on numbers going. The idea will be to leave Midleton at say 3pm on Friday 11th, get to Balycastle for around 8 after a meal stop half way. We will have a rough programme for the weekend and aim to get back to Midleton around 8 on Sunday 13th. Accommodation and travel details once we have committed numbers.
The starting point is a DEFINITE expression of intention to travel to Edmond on 086-8323267. Come on Midleton AC members and fly the colours on the Céide fields out west! Edmond.
Formed in 1966 Midleton Athletic Club is one of the few clubs in the Cork area that has both a juvenile section and a senior section as well. This blog will deal with the senior section. The senior section has a wide variety of members ranging from members in mid seventies to just out of juvenile. It is proud to boast that two of our members represented Ireland in the Olympic Games. Whilst most members nowadays seem to favour road running over the complete variety of distances from 3Km to marathon and beyond also X Country and track and field as well. There is an active social side to the club. Anyone wishing to join is welcome to try out for a session before committing to the club. The club trains on Mondays from 6pm in the Midleton College All Weather Cricket Field and on Wednesdays @ 6.30 meeting at the Community Centre also on Thursday's at the Co Op Market Green at 9pm.
