Another successful week for St. Catherine’s Club. On Sunday, 10th Nov we had 12 Juvenile athletes competing at the Uneven championships in neighbouring Castlelyons. As a neighbouring club we would like to thank St. Nicholas for hosting the Championships. It was a pleasure to arrive at such a well organised event, with a true cross country course, demanding but fair.
U9 girls were very well represented by Lelia O’Reilly, Lucy Aherne, Karina Hartnett and Lucy Barry who achieved overall 11th team placing. Lelia O’ Reilly gave a sign of things to come, winning her first Munster Medal. Placed 7th individually, Lelia also received a Munster, County Medal. In a blistering race, Meghan Carr O’ Reilly (U11 girls) won her second Munster Medal in as many weeks. Meghan and Sarah Morrison (Castlelyons AC) battled for position throughout. Sarah was triumphant and won Gold, with Meghan close on her heels to receive second place individually as well as another County team medal. Tom Hartnett and Gearoid O’ Brien (U11 Boys) ran a very strong race and are both continuing to improve throughout the season. Sarah Barry (U13 Girls), showed great determination and strength in what was a very competitive race. Kevin Barry, James Hayes and Ciaran O Brien lined up for the U13 Boys, all boys showed a great performance throughout. Laura Hayes also received a Munster Medal in the U15 girls, another club member receiving a second Munster Medal in as many weeks. Well done to all who competed last Sunday.

Well done to Ann-Marie and Kevin Hayes who ran in the intermediate section. In what was a very fast paced race Annie ran a fantastic race and was unfortunate to finish just outside medal placing.
