19th January
Saturdays Wexford Racecourse Parkrun was a very very cold start and saw a reduced number of members taking part due to Sundays Cross Country.
Gavin Hayes was well warmed up with a 21.09, another new club member Oliver Stack 27.2on his 1st outing as a club member, Sinead Ryan 31.56 & Bridie McGuire in 44.53 completed the club links to this weeks run. Fair play on such a cold day.
Sunday was Cross Country day as the Masters County Cross Country and Juvenile relays took place in a cold and sunny Adamstown. Our under 12 girls took home well deserved bronze medals with Laragh Walsh, Lucy McCormack Orla Dolan and Meabh McCormack flying through the course with infectious smiles. They were followed by the boys under 12 team of Josh Nolan, Jesse Murphy Rory Henderson and Alex Lonergan who ran an excellent race. Our girls under 14 just missed on bronze coming 4th Ali Wilson taking the first leg, handing to Sadhb Mulcahy to Rosie Jeffares and Ava McCormack cheered on by super sub Millie Stone. Well done to all our juveniles and thanks to parents for making the journey. Thanks also to our coaches Heather, Tracey and Terry and Louise,
Well done our ladies in the Masters finishing 19th 26th and 30th team was Catherine O'Connor, Mary Gaynor (who won her age category), Helen Sinnott and Louise Henderson. Unfortunately the very bumpy ground did not suit Loiuse and she had to withdraw after twisting her ankle. Speedy recovery to Louise. Well done to our men, Dermot Foley, Donal Grant, Martin Kelly and John Dier. Martin Kelly took the over 60 gold. At this time we do not have the mens finish positions. Thanks to our chairman Mick McKeon for his support on the course.
Just a mention to all our juveniles who lined the finish to cheer the adult members home creating a great atmosphere.
