Munster B Cross Country Championships (uneven ages)
- Winner
Congratulations to all of the Newport athletes who competed in the Munster B cross-country championships.
Again this competition resulted in mixed fortunes for the club with some good results and some more unfortunate mishaps.
In the U9 boys James Allen put in an a great run winding up the pace to finish in a strong 11th position to secure an individual medal.
Emma Coleman was less fortunate in the U11 event getting boxed in and tripped several times which knocked her completely out of her stride and finished off Emma’s chances of a top 12 finish. This was the re run of the Clonmel A race combined with the B group, so the field of athletes was even bigger than Clonmel making for a much more difficult race.
Niamh Cryan, Ruth Allen, Melanie Bonfield and Rachele Bonfield made amends in the B race with some impressive running and some excellent individual results
The U13 girls race also fortunately had good success where Sarah Fagan, Emma Flanagan, Thea Curtin, Roisin Allen and Laura Deegan ran a good race earning third club and first County which was great result for the club.
