The club’s growing multi-events group had a big day out at the All-Ireland Multi Event championships in NIA today.
Marianne has been leading the charge at multi events for a couple of years now and it was exciting for her to be joined by Sarah and Liliya today for their debuts.
Marianne was involved in a titanic battle all day and after the five events just lost out on a podium place despite a stirring run in the 800m.
Sarah had a day of days and with three PBs she was just outside the medals going into the 800m but despite a brave run she just came up short of the medals.
Liliya had four PBs, including a standout 1.39m in the High Jump, and she finished 9th overall, her best ever performance for the Club.
In the end two 4th places and one 9th was a great outcome with club multi-events coach, Cliodhna, saying ‘it was super to see three of the girls so competitive all day at All-Ireland level’.
Earlier in the week, Ella qualified for the Leinster Schools Cross-Country after a strong 7th place in the North Leinster Schools in Phoenix Park.
