National Intermediate and Masters  Cross Country

The fine setting of the Avondale Estate in Wicklow was the setting for the National Intermediate and Masters  Cross Country last weekend and we had two runners in action, Aengus Burke in the masters and Tom Lupton in the intermediate.  With a testing wind and the small matter of a “little” hill on each lap, it was not a day for the faint hearted, however the rain held off. Aengus was first up in the masters, a steady run by him securing the bronze medal in the O/55 section.   Tom then took up the challenge in the Intermediate rave despite being elegible for the masters 0/35 event.    As per usual, Tom put in a quality run, finishing just outside the medals in 5th place.

Kinnity Night Run               

A run with a difference took place last Friday, the annual Kinnity Knight run. Well done to Edel, Niamho Kavanagh and Niamh Kavanagh who braved the hills and darkness to complete the challenge in style.  Pic 1- Aengus Burke on the way to bronze in the National masters
