"Any news from Gerry Ryan?" is a question every Galway runner often hears when the popular Attymon man hasn't been seen on the road for a while. After a tough year from injury, Gerry has been back doing some steady training and decided to test himself against the guaranteed high quality field of the Dunshaughlin 10k last Saturday. The results are here: http://ie.trumin.com/online/event.ctrl?cmd=result&event=1083986896 Gerry found the race tough going as the conditions were hot, however his time of 31:08 is unbelievable…
The club had some great results at the Irish Tailteann Games which were held on Saturday 25th June in Santry. These games were originally held every four years in ancient Ireland and mirrored the more famous Olympic Games held every four years at Olympia in Greece. They were revived from 1924 to 1932 and were reincarnated in 1963 as an interprovencial junior competition. The Connacht team is picked based on the results of the Connacht and Irish schools competition and this year…

It was another golden weekend for Craughwell AC with athletes in action in Santry, Tullamore and Templemore. Cathriona Farrell led the way when adding yet another National Junior High Jump title to her collection in Tullamore on Sunday 26th June when leaping 1.71m. This makes it a hat-trick of outdoor and indoor junior titles for Cathriona – an exceptional achievement. Cathriona’s performance in this event has been very consistent with each victory close to her PB: 2011 National Junior Outdoors…

Folks Provisional program and entries for tomorrow – note the start time is 10.30am! http://www.craughwellac.com/images/stories/2011/outdoors/18th%20june%202011%20order%20of%20events%20rev2.pdf http://www.craughwellac.com/images/stories/2011/outdoors/western%20region%20programme%20180611%20rev%201.pdf Sligo IT is above a 2 hour drive from Craughwell. Travelling on the main dual carriageway into Sligo, go through 6 sets of traffic lights and on 7th set turn right (signposted Enniskillen) and proceed through small roundabout – Sligo IT and track is immediately next on your left. Following is my rough guess at times throughout the day – they are only guesswork so…
