GOLD For Our Ladies Team
and Individual Silver For Eileen Leahy
Another great day at the Novice Cross Country where our Ladies Team won GOLD and Eileen Leahy won individual SILVER.
Our ladies team all ran really well and huge kudos and thanks are due to Susan McGrath who stepped in at the very last minute to make up the winning team and made a great contribution with her fine running as well.
Ladies were led home by Eileen Leahy who had another great race battling all the way to narrowly lose out for first place. Next came Loveness Hegarty who continues to improve with every race she was followed by Susan McGrath and then the ever solid and reliable Sally Drennan completed the winning team.
Our men despite battling gallantly finished a fine fourth. They were led home by club Captain Declan Dorgan followed by Ger O'Regan and Edmond O'Sullivan, Then came the other members Maurice Ring, Michael Murphy and Francis Maunsell. Everyone played their part and gave their all to narrowly lose out on the medals.
Another great day for our club.
Well done all and big thanks to everyone who came to support.
