This years County Intermediate was held in a well prepared venue in Graiguenamanagh, hosted by Barrow Harriers. Our men gave a determined performance in a very competitive field with the team result in doubt until the numbers were crunched. An outstanding performance by Padraig Ruane saw him take individual gold and lead the team to first place. The other team members were 5 Diarmuid Cullen, 11 Graham Bourne, 16 Paddy Walsh and 17 John Phelan.
The club had a disappointing turnout for the juvenile races. Those who did travel were excellent. In the under 11 races Jason O’Neill and Anna Cunningham were excellent finishing 6th and 10th respectively. In the under 9 girls Kate Kelly was the individual winner and Ella O’Flaherty won bronze. Also running well was Kate Cunningham in 19th place. Theodore Hennessy was our lone representative in boys under 9 and finished well in 18th place. Well done boys and girls. Can we get better participation in future events?
