A great effort by the Joeys boys over two days in Santry after some last minute coaching with Melina. Louis (60m h) and Tom (600m) both took bronze medals with Gareth taking silver also in the 600m to follow up his gold in the South Dublin cross country champions race. Best result of the day was from Alex who threw a great 10.77m to win the shot put. You can see a clip of Louis´ race on RTE here at 2.05. In the relays no cups this year but three sets of silver medals after some great contests and slick baton changing. Photos here.  Videos. Our thanks to Fergus and William of Sherry Fitzgerald Lettingswho recently sponsored our new athletics kit.

At last we have had some better weather and it is bird nesting time. Click below to see the live pictures (daytime only) of a heron’s nest in Clontarf where two chicks hatched out in early April.
