The annual Star of the Sea cross country
took place today at Greenanstown, Stamullen. The weather was great and the
course was in great shape. We had a great turnout from the club with over 25
athletes competing on the day. Our girl’s teams were particular strong winning
bronze in the girl’s u9 event with great individual performances from Caoimhe
Fitzsimons 4th and Ciara Coroner 5th. Our u10, 11 and 12
girls’ teams took gold with standout individual performances from Sophie Quinn
who was 1st in the girls’ u10 race with Laura Kelly 5th
and Niamh Murray 12th. Aimee
Doherty had a strong run to win the girls u11 event, with Elbha Toole 5th,
Molly Keane 11th and Aoife Casey 20th. Our u12 girls Ella
Healy, Lili O’ Connor and Aoife Rutherford all ran well finishing 3rd,
8th and 10th respectively to take the girls title. Harry
O’ Connor had a great run finishing 3rd in the u10 500m leading the boys’
home to bronze in the team event. James Kelly, Fionn Heffernan and Gavin Witter running out
of their age were very strong in the u9 boys’ event finishing 7th,10th and 20th.
Well done to all athletes who
made the trip today for our first cross country of the season and a reminder
that the Meath even ages cross country championships will take place at the same venue this Sunday October 5th.
Thanks to Star of the Sea Ac for
another terrific event.
