Glenmore club’s Leinster rookie

placing 7th in the u14 event. In the Shot Putt, Diarmuid just missed out on a medal but finished a fantastic 4th place.

Enda also showed his great form and made the top 8 in his age group. The boys topped it off by recording 4 PB’s between them!

Niall Brady competed in the u15 Long Jump later on and advanced to the top 8 in a strong field of Leinsters best jumpers.

In the 100m heats he also acquitted himself excellently in a fast field. Niall represented Louth in the Inter County Relay on Saturday too with the u15 county team taking home silver.

Last but not least, Glenmore had three gutsy athletes take to the track for the middle distance events.

Anna Mc Ardle was first up in the u14 girls 800m heats. After having a wonderful first lap and in great contention for qualification to the final, Anna was very unfortunate to take a bad tumble at the bell.

However, being the determined athlete she is, she picked herself up and finished the final lap doing her usual utmost best.

Next up was Andrew Moore in the u16 800m final. This was Andrew’s first experience of Leinster competition aswell and he certainly did himself proud by clocking a new PB over the two lap distance, an event he’s only recently taken to and is showing huge improvement since the beginning of the season.

Hannah Stewart was delighted to be back competing at Leinster level following a long and tough spell of injury and took to the track in the u18 1500m. She ran a strong race among very fast competition finishing 4th.
