Tom agus Noel, beirt Gael-goers
Congratulations to our two most prolific marathoners Tom Roche and Noel Walsh on clocking up another 26 miler at the recent Connemara Marathon. Between them the pair have run 52 marathons, that’s almost 1400 miles of racing. In fact if they had set off in a straight line heading for Africa, they’d now be halfway across the Sahara Desert. Fortunetly they didn’t as only Noel was wearing a hat! They have also raised almost 50,000 euro for charity, in particular the Children’s Hospital in Crumlin. This time they covered the course in 4.14 with the wily Noel gaining a two second advantage on the run in. Never trust a man in a white cap, Oh revenge will be sweet when it comes in Dublin next October Tom!!! Well done to them both, two marvellous examples of all that’s good in sport.

Four County Continues
Next Sunday the 3rd stage of the St Abbans Four County League continues with a 10K held in conjunction with the National 10K in Tinryland. St Senans ‘B’ team have just two points to spare over Gowran AC, who will have the talented Mick Kelly back in action for this race. Adele Walsh will also have to be at her best to fend of some strong challengers in the women’s one mile race. Registration for all events is at the football grounds on the Bunclody road opposite Rathcrogue House and not in the usual school premises. Runners are advised to be there well ahead of the 1.00pm start.

Up the Airy Mountain
West Waterford AC kick off their Ger Wylie/Nike Summer series with the Marine Climb, a scenic 6 mile run from the pier in Dungarvan to the Marine Bar on Friday next 21st April starting at 7.00pm.
