Congratulations to our 8 athletes (Chloe, Kate, Hazel, Clara, Liam, Sofia, James & Alan) who took part in League 3 in Tallaght AC on Saturday. Middle distance races (500 & 600m), long jump, turbo javelin and high jump were the events on offer.

Thanks to Carole and Deirdre for guiding and encouraging our athletes on the day and to Maire for acting as official on behalf of Skerries AC.

Thanks to Cecil and his team for another great day out, and to our parents for their constant support and encouragement and the great photos.

Our Coaches Keith, David and John represented Skerries AC today at the National 5k Road Championships in the Phoenix Park. The stage was set for a great race on a beautiful sunny but crisp morning.

David was first home for the club in a time of 17:03 and 4th in his age category. Keith was close behind with a time of 17:07 winning Gold in his age category and taking the National title. John brought the team home with a time of 18:47, 4th in his age category.

All three were competing in the over 35 team category. They took Silver closely behind Rathfarnham and ahead of many of the big clubs in Ireland.

Phenomenal achievement, well done to all.
