Schools Cross Country day 1 / Juvenile training night / Schools Cross Country day 2
School Cross Country 1
What a miserable day for a run but our members stuck at it in the mud on Wednesday. The course was heavy and slippy as athletes navigated the course in Ferns in the pouring rain.
It was more a Battle of Attrition than an sthletics meet as the vourse drained the energy out of everyone's legs.
In the Intermediate boys race Fiachra Mehigan ran for Wexford CBS with a highly commendable 8th place. Elijah Page Redmond ran for St Peters College and Zac Dee ran for Good Counsel both digging deep finishing strongly on an absolutely miserable day.
Well done to the three of you, representing your school and your club.
Juvenile members training - Enniscorthy
There were challenging conditions at the Enniscorthy Sportshub last night which did not hold back our young Menapians who took part in a fun event organised by our friends in Enniscorthy AC. Jarlath Foley, Jasper Foley, Chloe Carroll, Danny Fortune and Louis Lau all impressed in their running events and all ran impressively in the relays. Thanks to club coaches Siobhán, Liam, Padraig and Eamonn who helped out and a big thank you also to all who helped out and organised this evenings event.
Schools Cross Country 2
Fiachra Mehigan was representing his school CBS Wexford at the South Leinster Schools Cross Country. Fennagh in Co Carlow was the venue as all the school colours were on display.
This was his first year at Intermediate level and he held his own finishing in 27th overall in 17:46, a super run.
Fair play Fiachra, a tough day out.
