Mac Domhnaill Wins in Kerry
Aogán Mac Domhnaill led from the start in the Baile na nGall 10k last Saturday and just held off the challenge from Frank Mc Guigan, Clonliffe Harriers, on a very wet and windy course bordering the Atlantic. Veronica Colleran, Ennis Track, took the women’s race. Also running from the club were Carmel and Mike Mac Domhnaill with Carmel winning her master’s category.
It was nice to hear the full race commentary in Irish and the proceeds went to charity. Lá d’ár saol, mar a deireann siad thiar.

Mc Cartan back on Track
This year’s track & field season was never going to be easy for Pat Mc Cartan as he was overcoming injury for most of the build-up. He ran well enough in the semi-finals of the National T&F in Tullamore to qualify for the final. His time of 3.55 for the 1500m is at least five seconds off his best and we expect that in three to four weeks time he will be back in top form.
He will continue with his racing schedule next week-end in the National T&F League in Santry. Go n-éirà leis. Â

Munster Masters
Anyone interested in taking part in the Munster Masters T&F Championship should contack Willie Costello regarding entry. There is some doubt whether the venue will be UL or CorkIT. We will have full details next week.
