With most of our Athletes running out of their age group medals were hard to come by on the first day of the County Kildare Cross Country Championship in Suncroft. But all the boy and girls crossed the line with a smile on their face and the experience will stand them in good stead for day (2) U/9 to U/17 which will take place next Sunday October 12th in Kildare( venue opposite ( Cill Dara Golf Club)
Probably the best way to get to location is Head for Kildare via the back of Curragh Race Course as you reach the town, turn right at traffic lights towards Railway station over the bridge it’s a short drive along this road and the venue will be on your left. info 0876624857, Please be at venue by 11.30 at latest.
Performance of note on the day, Luke Walker Browning 3th running out of his age in the Boys U/12 event, Girls U/14 fourth team, also it was disappointing to note that in the Girls U/10 event only three Athletes were brave enough to stand of the line, leaving us one short of a team, and with our three runners finishing in the top half of the field a medals were missed in this race. So we roll on to next Sunday where hopefully we can have teams in the uneven age groups.
Please inform your coaches by Wednesday 8th October, if you intend to compete or sign your name on sheet in Club House you can also text to 0876624857 and by e/mail noelpbrett@gmail.com
