We had some excellent performances by individuals and our Junior mens relay team.

Five silver and Three bronze was our haul for the day and our athletes can be proud of their efforts, where several new personal bests were set.
Juniors
Killian Cullagh won a silver in the 3000m Steeplechase where he broke the 10 minute mark for the first time with a great run of 9.45.33.

Dan Finnerty also had a great run in his 400m hurdles when he finished 2nd in a time of 62.36.

Mark Tierney won silver in the 35lb weight for distance with a best throw of 7.23m and he also finished 5th in the Discus (31.34m).

Paul White had another fine run in the 400m to claim silver in 49.31.

Ciara Cummins set a new personal best of 4.45.85 in the 1500m and finished in 3rd place.

Junior mens relay 4X400  had good success when Tom Hennessy, Paul White, Liam Finn and Michael Quilligan finishing 2nd in the 4x400m

Junior mens relay 4x100 also had good success, with Tom Hennessy, Dan Finerty, Liam Finn and Michael Quilligan finishing 3rd but the results are not finalised just yet as there was an inquiry about a team that participated but our lads are guaranteed a medal of some colour.

Under 23's
Oisin Fitzpatrick ran 15.85 in the u23 110 Hurdles final to claim the bronze medal and it's great to see him back competing again.

Well done to all of our athletes who travelled to Cork and competed so well for the club._
