Boston Update: Ann and Eleanor are Safe

Boston Update: Ann and Eleanor are Safe

Thankfully Ann Moran and Ellie O’Boyle were unharmed in the awful actions of yesterday – we have been receiving a number of enquiries on their safety.  Ann finished her race about 25 minutes before the blasts and had left the finish area before the atrocities occurred.  The thoughts of everyone in Craughwell AC are with the families and friends of those affected by this horror.
